Imagine you have a set of rules or instructions that you think are really important and canât be changed. You believe that these rules should be followed exactly as they are without any changes. Thatâs what fundamentalism is.
Itâs a very strict way of thinking and following certain beliefs or ideas completely opposite to Philosophy where philosophers engage in critical thinking, reasoned enquiry to understand fundamental beliefs.
People who are fundamentalists believe that their beliefs are the only right way, and they donât accept any other ideas or opinions.
Fundamentalism in extreme cases can be linked to intolerance, extremism, imposing beliefs on others.
modernists advocated conscious adoption of christian faith in response to scientific discoveries.
