I don't think he was. But I don't understand why it matters. Historically, whenever someone who claims christianity does something illegal, atrocious or immoral there will be an automatic response from other people who claim to be christian that they "really weren't Christian". It doesn't matter if that person was a priest, preacher, evangelist, Boy Scout leader... the very fact they did something horrible, they are of course disowned by Christians for the most part. But.. these very Christians who quickly disown anyone who claims to be christian and does these acts, seem to find it very difficult to apply that to people of other religions..
