"Any term distinguishing between people who try to follow the (mangled) teachings of Yeshua and people who are on jihad for JEE-zus is an important gift. 'Christianist' sounds rather legalistic and fails to capture their viciousness, so I use 'Christiopath' when I am forced to discuss the more... passionate*... members of the tribe.

"I refuse to use the same term to describe friends and family (Christians, mostly) as I use for Falwell or Dobson (Christiopaths), and so end up using 'Christian' rarely.

[...]

"And yes, 'Islamopath' works, too! There is probably a version for any flavor of evil fundamentalism [...]"

Well, if s/he wants a generic term of abuse, how about "theopath"?

With, of course, its opposite, "atheopath"...

I love it! How about " Judapath" or even "Yehudapath" for the fervently radically Jewish?
