He's a fundie who is given to proselytizing, although he is an all-round good person to work with.

Someone mentioned something he earlier opined about and we chuckled and discussed it. One guy said that he was smart because he was a college grad, and I noisily retorted "Yeah, at a religious college in Texas" and with a rather snide tone. We didn't know he was there but he immediately came around the corner and gave me a look that told me I'm on his shit list.

I'm sorry, but anyone educated at an institution that rejects facts and science is not educated IMO.
