I think that they are both based on the idea that one's own way is the best. One deals with religion, and the other culture. I can't tell if someone is American, or a fundie when I read their answers, so I can't answer the second part.

nope, not always, I am not and American, and would be what you consider a "fundie", and I believe that "this" country has been blessed by God. I don't believe that my own country has any spiritual significance, other than there is a great spiritual need. So in short not always.

Yes. Most genocides are the result of a heady mix of both.
In fairness, though, extremist ideologies of any stripe can substitute for religious extremism.

There shouldn't be any correlation. Christianity is for all people, races and creeds. Jesus said, "preach the gospel to all nations ..."
Peace!

Absolutely! They are maternal twins, born by an ignorant mother that was impregnated by a hateful father!

It would appear in theory both are rather egocentric in the cohesion of their sense of the ideal.

It's not always true that if you're blind about one thing, you're just blind. But it is often the case.
