Christian fundamentalists see it as undermining their understanding of God

Huh? I'm a pretty foundational Christian, and I see good science as only increasing my understanding and appreciation of God. This author has a chip on his shoulder against Christianity.

"This author has a chip on his shoulder against Christianity."

Exactly what I was thinking...

As did Copernicus and all the others that the author cites as having shoved aside Christian beliefs. This is a typical distorted history from a determined secularist who has a bias toward Christian belief. Such "histories" commit the fallacy of projecting back onto history their own present secularism. Dershowitz is another who does this constantly.

Indeed, this author has a twisted sense of what it means to be a "fundamentalist."

Why not call yourself a "fundamental" (not "fundamentalist") Christian, which is what the made-up word "foundational" means?
