I am. But the real question is-do you know what a fundamentalist is?

It depends on how you define the term 'fundamentalist'.
I am a Christian. If by 'fundamentalist' you mean an illiberal Christian, then no, I would not describe myself as a fundamentalist. Christ tells us to love our neighbours as ourselves, he rejected silly rules and opposed prejudice.
However, my faith does affect the choices I have made in my life in terms of my job, how I live, etc. I often follow my faith rather than fashion/peer pressure. So in some people's eyes I may be a fundamentalist.

That all depends on what you mean by a Christian fundamentalist. If you mean someone who has their faith at the heart of their life, then yes I am a fundamentalist.
If you mean someone who goes out and tries to force others into following their faith, then no I'm not

I am an orthodox believing Christian, which according to an atheist is probably Fundamentalist.

I'm not, but there is a beauty to the emotional aspect of fundamentalist beliefs.

I believe the world might label me a christian fundamentalist. If being against abortion, gay marriage and believing in the bible makes me one then I am.
