No. I think believing and speaking are innocuous in this context. It has nothing to do with what he is saying, or whether or not I agree.
I can disagree with what a lot of another religion says, it's not the belief or speech that is zealotry. It's the pursuit of, which require more active actions.
Side question: is only religion "zealotry," or would you say the same about any sort of belief system?

See I’d wager it’s infinitely worse to use a platform to speak against IVF and surrogacy in the context he did then it is for a random guy on a message board to refer to that behavior as zealotry.
So there is a danger to someone professing their beliefs about certain things on certain platforms? That for the safety of people, people should be allowed to say things they believe in?
In certain circumstances of course. That what Butker did was... dangerous?
