Answer by Rubym
I don’t think the bolsheviks were all that concerned with Rasputin other than he was involved with the Czar’s family and they wanted to get rid of the Czar. I have know idea what Kerensky thought of him, probably the same thing, just that he had a big influence on the Czar’s wife, especially because she thought Rasputin, a monk and alleged faith healer could cure her son Alexi of hemophilia. They probably saw him as a kook and were probably glad that the Royal Family were so interested in this kind of pseudo-religion and they could use it against them.
