We're not religious about REST. For example, see:

and

We've also tried to be specific in how you might approach addressing the limitations of HTTP in a way more consistent with the design of the protocol:

and

In fact, our thesis in this article is not about REST at all, but the design goals of projects like Falcor, which may be unrealistic. And it's those unrealistic expectations of what's possible are why people are turning from HTTP.

OK, I was wrong to accuse you of being religious about REST. Thanks for the links.
