Yes, but don't you (figuratively) make a distinction between religious fundamentalism within the context of a secular, democratic society, and religious fundamentalism within the context of a religious theocracy? People can think whatever they want, hold any extreme viewpoint they want, but at the end of the day...the political structures of the 2 societies are radically different. In the first, the radical holds relatively little power, in the other it is all-powerful.
