The most pronounced characteristics [of fundamentalists] are the following:

(a) a very stong emphasis on the inerrancy of the Bible, the absence from it of any sort of error;

(b) a strong hostility to modern theology and to the methods, results and implications of modern critical study of the Bible;

(c) an assurance that those who do not share their religious viewpoint are not really ‘true Christians’ at all.

- James Barr “Fundamentalism” (SCM Press:1977) p.1
