THIS is why I feel he should have been fired. NOT because he had religous beliefs or was willing to talk about them. But because he gave non-christians one MORE example of an intolerant, uncooperative Christian bully.

Fervent might not be the right kind of term. I know some very gracious fervent Christians who wouldn't persist in pushing their faith after your first objection. They believe that demonstrating their faith by an example of a good, gracious, respectful individual is a better way of evangelizing. Christian FANATIC may be more what you're looking for.
