frustrated..
How do you know you are a religious fundamentalist and a hopeless fanatic?
When you "think" that you believe in one God but you unknowingly believe in atleast, two - one who created your like minded fanatics and the one who created others.
When you spend all your "life" preparing and waiting for death and after life of a better re-birth.
When you think life is not to be lived but is to be spent waiting for the paradise.
When you think you are the privileged and chosen ones than all others yet talk about values like humility, love and compassion. (!!!!!!!!!!. Yup, that is how they do.)
When you think God is a tyrant who takes pleasure in parting the ones who love and splitting families by making you the "only" privileged one.
When you don’t realize the value of the life you have in hand which is to be celebrated and waste it telling all others who “live” that they are wrong.
When you try to “confine” the omnipotent, omnipresent God into one book or philosophy.
When you try to scare "others" projecting God to throw you into an eternal torment for a mere 70 or 80 years of life on earth, just 'cos they have their own understanding of God, which again they think is God revealed. (And you say God is love??? Your God scares the hell out of me. Devil could be kinder!!!!)
When you “believe” those who have a different opinion on spirituality or doesn’t approve of God or your framework of God are “devil” sent. (Do you guys mean God is not the only Creator, Devil is one too? Interesting !!!!!!!!!)
When you think it is a "master-slave" relationship.
When you think life is nothnig but a pre-coded algorithm. (If you are to dine as per your algorithm, you don't have to move your a**. It will be spoon fed to you by an invisible hand)
This is an endless list and anyone who wants to contribute or contradict is welcome.
PS: The above observations are very much based on personal experience. The author willingly tried to be one of them, yet failed miserably, which forces the disillusioned lass to conclude that she is either a satanic reincarnation or one with a reservation in the Hell. May God show her the light.

I seem to be fairly convinced that my religion is the wealthiest, the most tolerant, the safest and the least troublesome of all religions. I don't know if that makes me a fundamentalist or a fanatic!
@arjun
unfortunately, that is where it all start. the moment you hold ur religion is better in some aspect, you put every other religion in a darker light. and the culmination of this feling is what contribute to a crazily religious group of people. well ........ that is my opinion.
Heaven does not need me, and hells' afraid I might take over!
So what do I do now?
