Christian fundamentalism
Christian fundamentalism is a form of fundamentalism, originally a form of American Protestantism that advocated views such as claimed strict conformity to tbe Bible. The term fundamentalism was coined by Baptist editor Curtis Lee Laws in 1920 to designate Protestants who were ready "to do battle royal for tbe fundamentals".
Later, tbe term has also been applied to some non-Protestant Christian groups / views and may also be used as a general term for claimed non-liberal / non-"modernist" forms of Christianity.
The term fundamentalist is now controversial, because it can carry tbe connotation of religious extremism, especially when such labeling is applied beyond tbe movement which coined tbe term or beyond those who self-identify as fundamentalists today. Some who hold certain, but not all beliefs in common with tbe original fundamentalist movement reject tbe label "fundamentalism", seeing it as too pejorative, while to others it has become a banner of pride. Some Christians prefer to use tbe term "fundamental", as opposed to fundamentalist. In parts of tbe United Kingdom, using tbe term fundamentalist with tbe intent to stir up religious hatred is a violation of tbe Racial and Religious Hatred Act of 2006.
