520 |a Within the context of European (including American) civilization, the focus of religious concern has been on gaining freedom from the state. The doctrine of the separation of religion and government seems contrary to Islam. Islam is a civilization in the sense that it not only moralizes but also legislates. However, within the Indonesian context, religious pluralism has produced not an Islamic state nor the separation of church and state but the belief that the state should support all religions. The research here is an empirical test of this analysis and involves the study of 1,437 students at five Southeast Asian universities who responded to a self-administered questionnaire distributed 1969 and 1970. As expected, Muslims favor cooperation between "church" and state. But the data do not support the conclusion that there is a unified Catholic position; at present a lack of agreement and ambivalence characterize Catholics in the sample. Among Protestants, the Indonesians overwhelmingly accept cooperation between church and state, while other Protestants are less enthusiastic. The overall conclusion must be that the American idea of separation of church and state seems unlikely to become the dominant view in the region studied.
