Christian Fundamentalism

Christian fundamentalism is a movement within Christianity that emphasizes a strict adherence to traditional beliefs and teachings, particularly those found in the Bible. Fundamentalists assert the inerrancy of scripture, meaning they believe the Bible is without error and should be interpreted literally. This perspective often leads to a rejection of modernist views, scientific theories like evolution, and changes in cultural norms. Fundamentalism can manifest in various forms, affecting both individual beliefs and broader social movements, often prioritizing evangelism and moral conservatism within their communities.
