Maybe I'm ignorant, I've seen this description many times here in the R & S, but I have never heard it in real life. Who or What is this referring to??

It stands for "Fundamental Christian" and adequately describes a Christian who holds to the Biblical Truth. We believe that GOD created the earth, man, and all of this universe. GOD is the center of everything that is or ever will be. Have a great day and a wonderful weekend.
Thanks,

EDIT:
Reverend,
I am a definitely a "Fundie".
Thanks,

Fundy is a term generally ascribed to right wing, conservative Christians. It is usually referring to our beliefs in the fundamentals of the Bible, and generally the word is used in a derogatory manner.

I suspect it is a sort of nickname for "Fundamentalist." The Fundamentalists are a group of people who adhere to a literal reading of the Bible. The movement was founded in response to the publication of a pamphlet called "The Fundamentals" which appeared in England shortly after the publication of Darwin's "Origin of Species"

It's an abbreviation of fundimentalist. Basically a fundimentalist is someone who takes their beliefs, in most cases religious beliefs, to the extreme.
Most uses of it refer to what are otherwise known as "Bible Bashers" - people who attempt to enforce their beliefs upon others, sometimes to the point where they become violent towards said non-believers.

"Fundie" is short for "fundamentalist."
It's the term we use to describe the Bible-thumpin', woefully ignorant, intolerant and bigoted Christians of the bunch.
Great thing about a fundie is that you can spot one in about 8 seconds.
A good example is Matt.

It's short for "fundamentalist" and means just that in its description of a Christian: one who believes in the "fundamentals" (basics) of the faith. It's usually used as a negative descriptor (i.e., ignorant) but needn't mean anything bad.

See http://www.landoverbaptist.org/ for a parody version that is actually a very accurate representation.
