re: #16 Sergey Romanov

Note that Cataldo initially also thought it was a religious issue. Elsewhere he is quoted as saying in May that year that it was a “religious obsession rather than a psychological issue”. So he changed his opinion when he became acquainted with more facts of the case.

All that said, there’s no absolutely clear division between religious motive and psychological motive, since religious extremism can certainly feed an unhealthy mind, and vice versa. What should not be done is equating religious extremism with a whole religion.
