So a true democrat or true republican would have the same fanatical connotation? In fact anyone that proposed that truth existed in a religious or political sense by this definition would be a fanatic. Kind of a silly to polarize the issues from the outset being that "true" and "fanatical" are labels (and generally negative), not self-descriptive. No, I don't think that someone that believes there is one true god and one true religion is fanatical, just convinced by evidence outside the senses, or noumena. I don't think they expect anyone to be convinced by facts or phenomena. There's a line in "The Ninth Configuration" by William Blatty that refers to the conditions necessary to believe. "It is not what we see in the sky (the sign or miracle) that helps; it is what is in the heart: a right hope, a good will."
