bible-thumper
(So called because some evangelists literally thump their Bibles to emphasize important parts of a sermon.)
A person whose religious beliefs include strict adherence to the Bible. He is likely to deliver angry sermons to anyone who believes differently, even if that "difference" means belonging to a church that disagrees with his interpretation of Scriptures.
