REFORMATION IS HERE!

After the Reformation of the Church by Luther, a Doctor of Theology in his own right, whose entire purpose (hence reform) was to bring the Roman Catholicism of his day back to the fundamental roots of Christianity and Christ, I am growing weary of hearing all the apologists for Islam-"the-Religion-of-Peace" telling us the latter just badly needs "reforming," somewhat on the model of Luther.

Friends, please rest reassured, The Islamic Reformation is in very fact already in formation, it is in truth upon us now: the Great Reformer is in the very person of al-Baghdadi, a Doctor of Theology in his own right, and in the very form of IS/ISIS/ISIL/Da'esh, call it as you like, it is THE Reformation of "The-Religion-of-Peace" which will bring the awaited Caliphate - not a Movement, not a State - which explains its enormous draw for reform-seeking Muslims from all corners of the 'Umma, for those who openly embrace it and travel there to those who keep their sentiments of hope under their hat (or kaffiyeh or fez) and respond with a tsk tsk to the atrocities and then a wink and a nod.

This is the Reform to counter even the Wahhabbis, these Reformers comb through the Qur'an, the Sunna, the Hadiths word for word - to bring "T.R.O.P." back to its original glory, back to the 7th Century. All adherents to "T.R.O.P." who do not wish this Reformation or see themselves as part of it, will be, according to the very fundament of "The-Religion-Of-Peace" considered pariah.

Baghdadi and his planned Caliphate are the true face of this much courted "Religion-Of-Peace", and its appearance on the world stage has actually nothing to do with "victims" of Western Imperialism, but rather its competitors. What we have in all the conquest and growth of Da'esh, as precursor to the reestablishment of a former Caliphate, with all the beheadings and burnings, mass graves and pillagings, mass rapes and crucifictions and indoctrination of children to murder, the total destruction of any previous culture incompatible with this Reformation - what we have here is not "victims" but The Competition.

(Caveat: Of course, this Reformation "has nothing to do with Islam"!)
