Without agreeing with 11B3 in the slightest, I have to take issue with your call for a "Reformation" of Islam. The Reformation was a call within Christendom to clean up corruption and return to Scripture as the foundation of Christianity, to return to the faith of the church Fathers.

In the context of Islam, what would this mean? A return to the much more highly engaged, much more aggressive wars of conquest, pillage and slaughter that Mohammed and his immediate descendants engaged in. No thank you. I much prefer the heretics of Islam, who pay more attention to their conscience, or at least to the possibility of retribution, than their religious dictates.

My use of the word reformation was not smart. My apologies to all offended Christians. I meant Reformation by shaking off the terrorists and the Islamofascists and by becoming Western by adopting democracy, civil liberties, respect for life, etc. If the people I describe are Islam's heretics, then so be it.

I favor the Coulter plan. Forced conversion to Christianity. Now that would be an Islamic Reformation. ;-)
