Churchlish

Religious dogma used as an excuse to act assholish and mean-spirited to everybody. Portmanteau of "church" and "churlish".

Just because the Bible says that you can buy women does not mean you have the right to pawn your daughter off to a creep with a checkbook. That's just churchlish.

Chris Buttars is a classic "Churchislator"
D. Chris Buttars (born April 1, 1942) is a Republican member of the Utah State Senate representing senate district 10 (which spans the cities of South Jordan, West Jordan, and Herriman). He has served as a state senator since 2001.

Buttars has been outspoken on issues dealing with homosexuality, and co-sponsored Utah Constitutional Amendment 3 with Utah Boys Ranch colleague LaVar Christensen, which defined marriage in Utah as consisting "only of the legal union between a man and a woman." Buttars criticized the domestic partnership executive order signed by Salt Lake City Mayor Rocky Anderson. Buttars also introduced legislation that would ban gay clubs and gay-straight alliances in public schools.

Churchist

A type of Christian who pays less respect (however minimal or marginal) to non-church-goers. Note now the hyprocrisy that a Churchist does not necessarily have to go to church themselves - but will always say "I'd go if I had the time" in order to deter the whiplash effect of their bias.

The belief in Churchism.

"It's Churchists like him that give religion a bad name."
and
"I used to be a Churchist."
