What " Christian Identity " in Dylann Storm Roof ?

Rabbi on church killing      What struck me most about the mass murder of nine black people during a CHURCH service was its pagan character. I can't believe there is a spark of even a deranged CHRISTIAN in Dylann Storm Roof.There is not a hint of religious perspective, not a single reference to God ( did I miss something ? ) in Roof's sick but lucid manifesto. Also, I can't believe a mentally disturbed, drug crazed high school drop out wrote that racist manifesto. A Jewish rabbi wrote about " atheism " in practice here. And I agree.
    Did not the Russian novelist Dostoevsky in " The Possessed " have a character think: " If God does not exist, then everything is permitted ". Yes, even killing faithful Christians at a church service in the Old South.
          This kid was a patsy for an anti-religious political group.
    ( I do not associate atheist humanism with evil- on the contrary. But the New Atheism is decidedly nasty )
