Fundamentalism is an expression of conceit. Seeing a particular path or view of the path as better, worse, or the same in one way or another is conceit. It is often that those we associate with being fundamentalist shout "you are interpreting it wrong", and the equally fundamentalists on the other side saying "that isn’t meant to be taken literally", and those in the middle trying to convince people that all paths teach the same thing.
Fundamentalists have a view which is fixed, and the view can be anything, as long as it is held to be true and a certainty.
Arguing that someone is wrong because someone holds a particular view is pointless, and all that anyone can do is see for themselves, or shut up and do their practice, leaving others to do theirs.
At the end of the day I may be right, I may be wrong, but I share this hoping I am one, the other, both or neither.
