It's common for the convert to be a bit too evangelical at first.
People can enjoy arguments as a kind of sport. Some people react very badly to good arguments. You rarely see someone who is confident in the validity of their arguments calling their opponent smug.
There are convincing arguments stating that mild/moderate religious people provide the environment for religious extremists to be tolerated and to thrive. The existence of mild/moderate believers in a death cult does not justify or nullify the actions of that death cult. An adherent who does not believe in every aspect of the death cult's teachings has no moral immunity from criticism, in my most humble and entirely correct opinion.
