Stating what I think is only stating what I think, folks. Asking others the same question is an invitation for you to say what you think about the ISSUE, not attack the asker. But hey, Polemics rule!

Arfa, "every religion in it true form is great" is a heartening statement, but you yourself have stated that the Islamic faith is the last word of God, and therefore trumps all the other ones. This is exactly the twisted kind of fundamentalism to which I referred in the question.

People tend to give themselves, undeservingly, A LOT of credit when it comes to comprehending a god or religion.
Radicals , from ALL sides (Yes God, No God, this God, that God...), who think they know all the truths, are egotistic in their projections of spiritual insight.
Actions driven by ones ego are usually aggresive and unconstructive, even destructive.

You have not asked a question, but rather made a clear intimation that fundamentalism in religion is negative. What do you consider "radical fundamentalism" to be? You have given no clue, but you are showing a very negative attitude that some fundamentalist from some religion could point to and ask "do you think that radical anti-fundamentalists are generally negative?" If you wish honest discussion, you would not be so hateful towards something you know nothing about. Perhaps some time you could ask this question in an honest, sensible style? It would be very interesting to hear what fundamentalists think, not just a one-sided tirade like you want.

no if someone is fundamentalist i.e. knows all true fundamentals of a religion he will be a good guy because every religion in it true form is great(before humans changed the religion themselves to what they want). Ideal religion is which is unchangable & word of God & it must be Universal not for particular time or for particular people. Any one can talk to me on this topic.

Generally speaking, any kind of fundamentalism involves interpreting their sacred texts (example: Bible, Koran) literally. Some may take this fundamentalism to the extreme, that is most certainly negative, but fundamentalism in general is not negative in some cases

It is generally very destructive to freedom if the movement becomes large enough. Ask Hispanics, homosexuals, Arab Americans and those who get labeled with the :"L" word.

Centurion has it.
Though if you're asking a question, you shouldn't really answer it... considering the point is not to make a forum, rather than to ask a question and wait for answers.
