Linguistically speaking why is it a misnomer and sign of being uneducated when someone uses the word fundamental as a pejurative when refering to someone else as a religious fundamentalist?
There is no negative connotation associated with the use of the term "religious fundamentalist". It is a perfectly legitimate expression with a clear meaning (a person who interprets his religious texts literally, accepts the simplest meaning of any religious commandments, and is inclined to follow them without question).However, the word "fundamental", although the root word of "fundamentalist", is rarely if ever used in this context because its meaning has little to do with the beliefs and practises of fundamentalists. "Fundamental" means having to do with the foundation of a thing, usually figuratively, and frequently in the phrase "fundamental principles". Although "religious fundamentalist" is often used as a pejorative by people who don't like religious fundamentalists, the word "fundamental" is unconnected with it and so never carries the odium.
