They should do.
"Deuteronomy 21:18 If a man have a stubborn and rebellious son, which will not obey the voice of his father, or the voice of his mother, and that, when they have chastened him, will not hearken unto them:21:19 Then shall his father and his mother lay hold on him, and bring him out unto the elders of his city, and unto the gate of his place; 21:20 And they shall say unto the elders of his city, This our son is stubborn and rebellious, he will not obey our voice; he is a glutton, and a drunkard. 21:21 And all the men of his city shall stone him with stones, that he die: so shalt thou put evil away from among you; and all Israel shall hear, and fear."
So in conclusion Mr Benevolent wants you to stone your own children.

You use the word "fundamentalist" but don't explain what YOU think that means. Either way this is a daft question because what does it getting at, really?
I am a fundamentalist Christian, friend. This means I believe in the fundamental principles and teachings fo the Word of God, I believe the Bible is 100% accurate and truthful by faith. It does not mean I would seek violence against others or have my children literally stoned to death.
Some people get the law of the Old testament confused with the grace offered by Jesus. Jesus replaced the old law. We are not under that any more. This means we are not required to stone people. Which is a good thing really because someone so anti-God as you are would have been executed this way by the religious peoples of the day.

Indeed fundamentalists who take everything absolutely literal would follow that scripture, however only fundamentalist Jews would do that because that scripture was for the Jews at that time.
The Bible isn't absolutely literal, even the New Testament. Proof? Matthew 1:1, "A record of the genealogy of Jesus Christ the SON OF DAVID, the SON OF ABRAHAM."
Naturally we know David wasn't Jesus' daddy, and Abraham wasn't his grandpa. Hence an entirely literal approach would be hazardous.
"Before this faith came, we were held prisoners by the law [Old Testament], locked up until faith should be revealed. So the law was put in charge to lead us to Christ that we might be justified by faith. Now that faith has come, we are no longer under the supervision of the law." - Galatians 3:23-25

Ah, I wonder what you would do wih this one..."For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life". - John 3:16

Some Christians may condone stoning say no to Jesus types.
