The answer is "Fanaticism".



Fanaticism is a conduct that shows a greater amount of an over the top energy. Paisley's fixation of going to Science University is ordinary yet her activity, for example, getting a grant from an alternate school and never engaged the email is a strange conduct.

Fanaticism happens when somebody is unwilling or unfit to acknowledge a varying perspective. You can utilize the word to depict the perpetual war between enthusiasts of the Boston Red Sox and the New York Yankees.
