The problem with Fundamentalism is not the fact the Scriptures are true, but in understanding the way they are true. Fundamentalism's weakness is that it is playing on the same field and by the same rules set up for it by Enlightenment Rationalism. A fundamental approach to the Bible assumes that the record of the Scriptures, specifically the Gospels, is meant to be be taken in a strict, chronological manner when chronology was not the concern of the writers at all. In other words, Fundamentalism is imposing an Enlightenment Rationalist framework on the Scriptures as an historical record but does not understand the intent, the method, and literary purpose of the Gospel writers.
