Why Islam Probably Can't Be Reformed
Advice Goddess Blog ^ | August 9, 2016 | Amy Alkon

Islam is a deadly totalitarian political system masquerading as a religion.

Few in the West know this and/or are willing to admit it.

Being honest about this doesn't mean hating Muslims. It means understanding the religion and why it is dangerous to the rights and freedoms and way of life in the West, and why that danger probably isn't going to go away.

The last Pope seems to have understood this.

islam doesn’t stand with the reforms required to reform it. It is what it is.

All of the latter parts of the koran calling for killing infidels makes it pretty much of a no-go in most countries except those countries lead by the insane.

The problem with Islam is its fundamental doctrine, not errant practices. I find the “Islam needs a reformation like Christianity had” to be offensive. Very offensive. The fundamental doctrine of Islam, as taught by it’s founder, is kill those who do not believe. It’s a death cult, comparing it to ANY religion is naive.

It was strange to hear former Pope Benedict described as ‘the last Pope’. I know it was meant in a different context, but many do wonder what the end goals of Christianity will be, in the opinion of Pope Francis.

Reform, like reformed Judaism and liberal Christianity, would be a movement away from its primary literary source.

The bigger problem is that the Muslim country mean IQ of 81 is half a standard deviation below the mean IQ of non-Muslim nations. They are simply too stupid to be reasoned with.

The best line from your link: Possible explanations for this decline include hybridization with sub-Saharan Africans, dysgenic decrease in the more educated Muslims employing birth control as suggested by Meisenberg, the Muslim religion not fostering critical thinking, and the intellectual contributions being both exaggerated and made by non-Muslims.

Total denial of the Islamic tradition of first cousin marriage shows the bias of the authors or their astounding incompetence as academics. Marriage of first cousins over generations apparently makes you dumb and dumber.

Islam is a threat to Western Civilization period. The muzzie culture is dying .... Look across the Middle East and what muzzie country is thriving? They are falling further and further behind with respect to standard of living, technology, education, you name it. But in their death throes, they will try to take others with them.

Islam cannot be reformed because Mad Mo left instructions to kill anyone who tries to reform it.

"...marriage of first cousins over generations apparently makes you dumb and dumber."

No "apparently" about it. Excellent article here: http://en.europenews.dk/-Muslim-Inbreeding-Impacts-on-intelligence-sanity-health-and-society-78170.html. I will quote some passages.

Massive inbreeding within the Muslim culture during the last 1.400 years may have done catastrophic damage to their gene pool. The consequences of intermarriage between first cousins often have serious impact on the offspring’s intelligence, sanity, health and on their surroundings.

Statistical research on Arabic countries shows that up to 34 percent of all marriages in Algiers are consanguine (blood related), 46 percent in Bahrain, 33 percent in Egypt, 80 percent in Nubia (southern area in Egypt), 60 percent in Iraq, 64 percent in Jordan, 64 percent in Kuwait, 42 percent in Lebanon, 48 percent in Libya, 47 percent in Mauritania, 54 percent in Qatar, 67 percent in Saudi Arabia, 63 percent in Sudan, 40 percent in Syria, 39 percent in Tunisia, 54 percent in the United Arabic Emirates and 45 percent in Yemen

IQ in inbred children (8-12 years old) is found to be lower (69 in rural and 79 in suburban populations) than that of the outbred ones (79 and 95 respectively). The onset of various social profiles like visual fixation, social smile, sound seizures, oral expression and hand-grasping are significantly delayed among the new-born inbred babies."

Everyone should read the cited article, lots more studies and facts.

Total denial of the Islamic tradition of first cousin marriage shows the bias of the media and their astounding incompetence as newsies.

Unless the false prophet returns and changes everything himself, then it’s impossible to “reform”.

OTOH, muslims themselves can be “reformed”. They can decide that islam is neither a true or good religion, they can investigate Judaism and Christianity, and convert! Leave the evil of islam behind and choose life!

Islam has already had its reformation. It happened in the 1740s, about 200 years after the European reformation, and its descendants are the fastest growing and most successful evangelists for Islam.

They are called ISIS.

You can’t reform Islam.
Every word in the Koran was delivered to Mohammed by the ‘angel’ Jibriel.
Further more, the bandit, murderer, rapist, and pedophile, Mohammed is the ‘Perfect Man’ of Islam.
To change one word of the Koran or to imply that Mohammed’s behavior was less than ideal, and not a model for all Moslems, is heresy and apostasy and is punishable by death.
You cannot ‘reform’ something like that.

Still, a reformation is called for. it needs to be tried.

If it can’t be done, we’ll find that out. If it can, all the better.
