Biblical fundamentalism remains a thorny pastoral problem. Not only do some fundamentalists attack the Catholic Church as anti-Bible, but also some fundamentalists attitudes have crept into Catholic circles and have begun to erode authentic Catholic teaching on the Bible. This book provides an overview of the origins, history, basic tenets, and problems with bilical fundamentalism and its influence in contemporary culture. It summarizes Catholic teaching on the Bible and points out both strengths and weaknesses in the fundamentalist approach to the Bible.
