Not quite true.  Some of you may be familiar with "Faith for the
Family" magazine, published by Bob Jones University.  The folks
there are probably, by any definition, "fundamentalist".  They
say, for instance, the Jerry Falwell isn't a "real" Baptist, 'cause
he's too liberal.  But they also think those who hold to an inerrant
King James are in error.
