Fundamentalists see the Reformed as approaching antinonianism and while they are sometimes wrong they are sadly correct more often than we would like.

In one sense true. However, the Fundy view of the law is distorted. In a broad picture Fundies are more antinomian then Reformed Christians. For instance, the standard in which Fundies use to classify someone antinomian is based on binding the conscience of people where scripture doesn't bind the conscience. I have yet to experience a Fundy criticize a Reformed believer because they failed to apply the decalogue in their life. Fundies see Reformed Christians as "antinomian" because Reformed believers tend to enjoy things of the world to the Glory of God; e.g. the arts, cigars, alcohol, and other "worldly" pleasures.
