That’s why I said religious zealots.
I know what you said, I was simply saying that not all zealots are religious…why the shock?
The original definition of a zealot was a religious fanatic.
Indeed, but the meaning of words change over time, anyone who is fanatically committed to a cause may be described as a zealot, the cause does not have to be a religious one…the beauty of a living language.

And that is why I specified religious zealots in my post, to differentiate.
