From the Paper:

"Defining Evangelical Protestantism and Defining Fundamentalism within Protestant Christianity Definitions are rarely easy or particularly neat. Much of the reason for this can be found in the fact that, for every rule, there is invariably an exception. Despite such difficulties however, the following paper will examine Evangelical Protestantism as well as fundamentalism within Christian Protestantism. Specifically, the paper will review the histories of both Evangelicalism and Protestant fundamentalism and look at the components which comprise both of these theological strains. The paper will also take the time to note what it is that distinguishes Protestant fundamentalism and Evangelical Protestantism from other, non-fundamentalist religious traditions. Along the way, time will be devoted to examining how literal interpretations of the Bible have led to charges of anti-intellectualism by detractors and how God's power over Man, at least according to conservative Protestant theocracy, is not so much the product of his omnipotence as it is the product of his Grace."
