'''Fundamentalism''' is a movement among [[Christian]]s in the [[United States]] that began in the late 19th century. It was a backlash against [[Modernism]], which the fundamentalists accused of denying such Christian doctrines such as [[virgin birth]] and the inerrancy of Scripture.  The views of many of the greatest scientists and mathematicians were within the meaning of fundamentalism, including [[Isaac Newton]] and [[Bernard Riemann]].

Fundamentalism is one of four major movements within Protestantism, the other three being [[Mainline Protestant churches|mainline]], [[evangelical]], and [[Pentecostal]]/[[charismatic]], and as such has a specific meaning within Protestantism regarding doctrine and practice.  However, the term itself is sometimes used in a pejorative way today by [[liberal]] bigots to describe any Christian individual or group disagreeing with how it perceives Christianity should believe and act (e.g. not agreeing with liberal Christianity).
