An Honest Admission On The “Religion of Peace”
Turkey’s powerful Department of Religious Affairs has commissioned a team of theologians at Ankara University to carry out a fundamental revision of the Hadith, the second most sacred text in Islam after the Koran.
The Hadith is a collection of thousands of sayings reputed to come from the Prophet Muhammad and as such, it is the principal guide for Muslims in interpreting the Koran and the source of the vast majority of Islamic law, or Sharia. These theologians say that a significant number of the sayings were never uttered by Muhammad, and even some that were need now to be reinterpreted.
This is huge! Sharia Law is the source of Islamic terrorist doctrine. If Turkey is successful in creating a Reformed Church of Islam, they will bring this currently very violent creed into the modern age and it may finally truly become a religion of peace. If so, it could then join the ranks of Christianity, Buddhism, Hinduism, Sikhism, Taoism and others, which already are religions of peace.
This won’t be accepted lightly. Certainly the Saudis will violently oppose it as being against their goals, which I’ve outlined in the previous post, and the Sunni and Shia alike may find the new Hadith unacceptable. Any change that happens for the better will take a long time, but this admission by muslim scholars that Islam is full of grievous errors and needs repair is almost beyond amazing.

This is good, the Muslims Against Sharia are also attempting to rewrite the questionable verses of the Koran. I give them credit, but it won’t matter. The hard-core followers won’t buy the new version.
Glad you are enjoying your new blog so much. I need to go through my blogroll. I know a lot of them don’t exist any more.
Some days I would love to shut down Right Truth and never get online again. Some days, ha.

I think this fundamentally will not stand at the end of the day because the hard core Muslims are too indoctrinated by its hate. On the positive side they really do this perhaps the next generation of Muslims that have not been endoctrinated with all the hate can benefit and become that religion of peace, which it is not for sure now.
Thanks for the linkage and I did reciprocate. Don’t be a stranger and come over more often. I am full of surprises on The Hill.
I like your new blog. And Debbie I would miss u-pls NEVER close up shop-we need to keep going and keep this all alive for the next generation. Hopefully they will find more peace than ours has.
