"Fantastic doctrines (like Christianity or Islam or Marxism) require unanimity of belief. One dissenter casts doubt on the creed of millions. Thus the fear and the hate; thus the torture chamber, the iron stake, the gallows, the labor camp, the psychiatric ward." - Edward Abbey
But he's still an idiot. Falwell is just a rich christian who happens to get his ugly mug on television and put most of the rest of Christianity in a bad bad light. | Torchslasher

Fundamentalism in its' pure form allows for nothing but strict adherance to (fill in the blank) belief.

Ok,
Fundamentalism in its pure form allows for nothing but strict adherance to anti-fundamentalism belief.
