Fundies are like the immortals from Highlander.
As far as they're concerned, there can be only one religion — theirs. (Yes, they do see atheism as a competitor false religion that distracts people from the "truth" of what they believe. And, yes, the conspiracy theories about the Antichrist establishing a one world religion and relentlessly persecuting anyone who doesn't fall in line are likely to be quasi-subconscious fantasizing about what they want to do to everyone who disagrees with them.)
