Friend In The Ether Blake does so quite succinctly and dead-on-balls accurately in the Comments section of a post over at Protein Wisdom:
At one point, I was among the camp that thought Islam needed to be reformed, much like Christianity.
However, I’ve come to realize I was comparing two different things.
Christianity, in and of itself, did not need reformation. What needed reformation were the people and churches that claimed sole proprietorship of the Word of God. (William Tyndale stands as testament to those who challenged the power of the church)
Islam, at its core, is fascism disguised as religion. Nothing more, nothing less. Reforming Islam would mean completely dismantling the entire religion. One doesn’t reform fascism. One destroys fascism.
THIS.
Allah is not our God.
