“Pope equates Muslim extremists with Christian fundamentalists:”

I noticed that too, but forgot to point it out. I should have put it in my first post. You are right, this was very upsetting. Yes, there are some people that call themselves Christian fundamentalists that are violent, but they are not real Christian fundamentalists since they are not following Jesus’ commands. You wonder about a Pope who equates a Christian fundamentalist with a Muslim extremist. Who does he really represent?

Indeed. Jesus was a fundamentalist. Safe to say that most of the regular Prot posters on the RF here would (and should) ID as fundamentalist, as meaning holding Scripture to be the supreme transcendent standard for faith and morals as the wholly inspired and accurate Word of God.

In contrast to the liberal revisionism, such as seen for decades in many of the commentary teachings in the RC NAB Bibles, that the modern fundamentalist evangelical (used to be basically the same) movement originally arose to combat.
