Fundamentalism in Religion

[easternbrain]

Where does one identify the line which if you cross you would be labeled as a fundamentalist? How would you classify a person as religious, deeply religious and fundamentalist?

To start with you have to fallow your heart . There are people that go by there minds and not there heart and these are the people that sound like fundamentalist . We also have to understand who is a right teacher . There are certain rules that the teacher follow to be a good teacher . It is up to us to see that the teacher is good .

That is a very good question that I would really like to see the answer to as well. Unfortunately you might find that their are different levels to this by each person that you ask. If someone is not religeous at all and you have someone pushing them to become religeous for some reason they might consider that person to be a deeply religeous or an extremist.

Well to most people, if your one of those guys who is out in the middle of campus telling everyone to join you else be damned for eternity, you'd be labelled a fundy. I am very Christian myself. I like to share my religion and wish that all would believe but I don't force my religion on others.

Its more like Religion Chauvinism. The love for one's religion may rise to such an extend that he wants all the people should follow his religion.
