    Answer the poll above before you read the remainder of this post.

    Ok, did you tick "All of the above"?

    The term "fundamentalist" was first applied in the early 20th century to describe those Christians who considered the above five features fundamental to their faith.

    I just thought it would be interesting to refer back to this original definition.

    What do you think the meaning of "fundamentalist" is today?

    The distinction, I think, is that those five are the only five. A fundamentalist must not only consider the bible the revealed word of God, but the only word of God.

    I ticked every single box, including "all of the above" and "none of the above". What does that mean?

    Was I truthful? Stay tuned to find out when we return to "WHO WANTS TO BE A CHRISTIAN FUNDAMENTALIST"!!!
