The typography sense is from Old French 'fonte' (a casting), from 'fondre' (to melt). The religious sense is from Latin 'fons' (spring, fountain). They have different origins.
Memory Tips
Imagine a 'fountain' of letters for the typography meaning, and a 'fountain' of holy water for the religious one.
