I voted subset as well. Fundamentalists are evangelicals.

I think maybe at present, Fundamentalism appears to fits within a larger Evangelicalism.

BUT, historically it didn’t.

Historically it was in competition with what we now call Evangelicalism (i.e. New Evangelism.) Not a subset.

Or… maybe I just want to see more visual separation in the diagram :-)

Wouldn’t this be a better description, both currently and historically?

your “eyeball” looks to be more accurate.

Hoping to shed more light than heat..

In what circle do you put a “Philip Nolan?” Where does he go if he renounced fundamentalism, and still can not cozy up with conservative evangelicals? :)

Since these are general categories, and not generally anything people sign up for, M Leslie, i would say probably still Fundamentalist… after all, they are still for some kind of separation—they have just applied it to both sub-categories… :)
