Unless that religion could somehow disappear.

He was an Arab but not a Muslim.

Of course if you believe the conspiracy theorists then Sirhan was a fall guy anyway, his actions ever since have been weird to say the least. TBH there were plenty of people out to get the Kennedys, the Mafia were still pretty pissed at them.

"Religiously, his doctrines changed often, the ones holding the longest interest being Baptist, Seventh Day Adventism and several forms of occultism."
He seemed like a messed up kind of guy.
Nah, it was Bush's fault.
Too bad your long, repeatedly shared, post is completely off topic. Kingsurfer's research really does show he was a Christian.
Muhammad advocated assassination to get rid of those who mocked him and Islam has been heavily into assassinations ever since then. As a way of political change and killing off kings,leaders and dynasties.
At one of his parole hearings, Sirhan told the panel he had been reading all of Robert Kennedy's books and that he felt like if he were alive today, that Robert Kennedy would want him to be released.
That night Jay Leno (I think) said, "Talk about bad luck; the one guy who would want him out and he killed him."
Agreed,something special is going on with Sirhan, he's getting special attention from Hyannisport, if you ask me.
Please also note my tagline
--the laast press release I saw on a Sirhan parole hearing noted the presence of Kennedy family lawyers--
LOL. Leno has some great writers. Do you ever check out the 'Late Night Jokes' on Newsmax? It's pretty funny.
PLO has always had *some Christians* and they had a lot more back then. Back in Sirhan Sirhan's day the PLO was primarily a national liberation movement, secondarily a Muslim Jihad movement
A Christian he was not. It appears he dabbled in more than just Christianity and never really settled on anything. But it's true he wasn't a Muslim and it's wrong to lay the assassination at Islam's feet.
People forget Pan-Arabism, Marxism, wounded pride and so on can be just as much a motive as religious zeal.
The "occultism" came after the killing, not before.
