Creationism may be wrong, but it never struck me as something unhealthy. At least not for the individual believer.

I guess I'm just skeptical that you're actually limiting your concept of 'unhealthy' fundamentalism to those who actually have something like a mental illness in their Christian lifestyle. It seems too subjective, too easily extended to healthy people who annoy you.
