Summary: | Acts of intolerance in Indonesia are usually carried out against non-Muslim groups and Christians who are targeted, especially in cases related to the destruction of places of worship. Secularism has offered a solution to religious radicalism by drawing an absolute separation between religion and the state. However, viewed from a post-secularism perspective, secularism cannot be the right solution to religious radicalism. Post-secularism has played an essential role as a way for religion to enter into public life, but it has not comprehensively discussed how religion should function within it. It is hoped that religious freedom can be fully implemented in Indonesia, because Pancasila guarantees it so that confessional pluralism can be realized in the context of sphere sovereignty. The study's findings offer principled pluralism to provide an understanding of the place of religion in a post-secular society and how it should function within it to resolve religious intolerance. |
