 Technological zealotry of Bitcoin is a means to an end. Users of the early Internet were zealots about it as well, as are early users of basically every social media platform. Eventually it either fizzles out or becomes a background tool that requires no zealotry. 

Religious zealotry, however, is designed to never run out. There will always be more people that need converting, saving, damning, or conquering.
