A practitioner of the most grave and foul of sins: Godomy... Which is to say, of course, someone who's become so deliriously happy with having god up their own ass that they try to forcibly shove god up your ass as well.

You can keep the specifics clear with this handy rule of thumb: Remember... All godomites are demented ass-freaks, but not all demented ass-freaks are godomites.
