C, matches the closest to the definition.

Answer 2

The correct answer is C. The term was used for the first time in the evangelical Christian conservative movement,  they opposed to the liberal or modernist tendencies of the theology of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.

In 1920 the term "fundamentalists" appears for the first time in a New York newspaper. As a consequence, the term was associated with any religious position that defends a literal interpretation of its sacred texts, or those who promote an intransigent application of the doctrine.
