"Reformed" Islam

I think that Europeans respect any thing in Islam, but the conception that women are inferior to men.

Besides I live in a country, Italy, where female seduction is something natural and it is within the nature of all women.
so the concept of the veil is something unnatural, and maybe considered as the process of destroying woman's femininity.

I'd like to post a talk show in which an Italian actress comments the custom of the veil. She says " I respect anyone's choice but I really consider the purpose of the veil an insult to woman's dignity. Because Muslim men want women to cover themselves because they don't want to be seduced. A woman must seduce: it's in her nature. When I wear sexy clothes and men look at me, I feel gratified in my role.
so I want men to be aroused. I want them to be sexed up. It's my prerogative"

I want to start this thread by quoting a current sentence said by Wafa Sultan:
"I personally don't think that Islam can be reformed. Unless we recreate a totally new belief system and keep the name. But whoever claims they can, has the right to try to do it"
well...I can't judge a sentence like this because I am not a Muslim, but I surely can understand what she means.
She means that the Muslim authorities should repudiate all the passages of the Qur'an justifying violence.
They should repudiate all the passages which justify the holy war. and they should say that all religions are equal in God's eyes.
In other words: a Christianized Islam. Without rejecting the centrality of Islam theological precepts, stated by the last prophet.
  1. The eruption of violence by the extremist to do politics by mis-using Islam as a tool to get power.
  2. And the re-action to it in the wrong direction as done my Wafa Sultan and the like.
This is an indication/sign that re-formation of Islam timely happened by the advent of Mirza Ghulam Ahmad (1835-1908)- the Promised Messiah and Imam Mahdi. The Muslims and others (of all religions and non-religions alike)should realize and appreciate this peaceful reformation rather than opposing it.
This opposition of the Promised Messiah and Imam Mahdi, indirectly and in many ways directly supports the Extremists.
