Why Christian?

Is not Salafism and Haredi Judaism fundamentalist? Howard C. Berkowitz 22:07, 2 June 2009 (UTC)

Well, there is a distinciton between fundamentalism and Fundamentalism just as there is between lower-case and upper-case conservatism, communism, catholicism and so on. Every religion can have it's fundamentalists, but only Protestant Christianity has Fundamentalism. Perhaps we need some disambiguation. –Tom Morris 22:16, 2 June 2009 (UTC)
