What type of fundamentalist list do you want, liberal, ultra liberal, conservative, dogmatic, or Jesus hates fags dot.com type?

For some reason I always thought others put that label on us and not ourselves.

"Fundamentalist"
I remember reading somewhere that, in the ninteenth century, some Protestant Scholars developed what they called the "higher criticism" ,using "internal evidence" to "demythologize" the Bible . They were,IMHO, a sort of prototype of the "Jesus Seminar" crowd .
Well, this re interpretation of scripture produced a reaction among other Bible Christians who became "fundamentalists" because they tried to stick to the "fundamentals".
Is that how you see fundamentalism ? as a sort of reaction to the watered down type of scripture interpretation ?
