MashAllah brother. Keep up the good work fisabilillah and may Allah grant you Firdaws for this.
I dont know where you are in the world, but it brings hope to meet my fellow brothers/sisters on the net working hard to spread our thoughts and methodology based on Quran and Sunnah(seerah). Alhamdulillah. I work with the party in Denmark al7amdulillah, and I hope this generation will be the one who will experience the Nasr and be the first to spread Al Haq. Ameen.

Wa salaam

What Martin Luther started is historically known as the Reformation. Along with the Reneisance, it was a symbol of the death of Papal leadership in Europe. The fact that it was called the 'Reformation' does not necessarily make it one. A reformation by definition is the "improvement in the existing form or condition of institutions or practices etc..." A reformation is leaving the existing system, only improving on it or making some changes to it. In other words, if it was a reformation then the Papal leadership would have remained, only would have had to change a few of it's rules. This is obviously not what happened.

A revolution is the complete change (and not simply an improvement) in an existing system. A revolution is basically the scrapping of the old and the bringing of the new. What happened in Europe could not be any further from being simply a 'reformation'. It is certainly a revolution where a whole system has been scrapped and a new system brought in to replace it. A new system that almost completely contradicts the old. This is a revolution and not a reformation.

First you note how dramatically Western society changed in consequence of the Reformation in Christianity and then you say that society cannot be changed through reformation...? Isn't this a pretty big contradiction, or am I just missing something?
