Indonesian Government May Stop Protecting Christians from Muslim Terrorists
Topics: Understanding Islam
The situation in Indonesia isn't looking very good for Christians.
You'll find information on the roots of the Muslim Christian conflict in Indonesia here, and also about possible government involvement in the problem.
Something to keep in mind about the problems in Indonesia, and everywhere else on the planet:
... More Muslims endorse violence than are violent themselves. Falling into this camp is any Muslim who accepts, loudly or tacitly, with the political ideology of totalitarian Islam. Totalitarian Islam is the view that Islamic law should govern human action in all spheres, and particularly in politics. To achieve this goal, Muslims must wage a war on the rest of civilization, and forcibly impose Islam, the only law sanctioned by God, on the world. Those who espouse this idea do not call this totalitarian Islam. They simply call it Islam. But this is the meaning of the idea that a religion should forcibly conquer a people and force it to obey God's dictates: it means a totalitarian regime in the name of that religion. Any Muslim who agrees with totalitarian Islam is by that fact endorsing violence. Violence perpetrated by Muslims is on the rise because the ideology of totalitarian Islam is on the rise.How interesting that there's a take home message in almost every news story - even one on Muslim violence on Christians (and even occasional Christian violence in response) in Indonesia. It's all so much about the ummah. In Indonesia, predominantly a Muslim country, the Muslim political and religious leaders "(there is little difference between the two)" are effectively endorsing the ideology of totalitarian Islam.... Muslim political and religious leaders (there is little difference between the two) make no bones about endorsing this ideology. The Middle East Media Research Institute (www.memri.org) translates Arab news, television, and other media into English. Read a transcript of a televised sermon. These are diatribes on the theme of Islamic supremacy, and the need to fight to spread Islam throughout the West. Together, Muslim congregations chant to their leaders: "Allah Akbar. Allah Akbar. Death to those who oppose the rule of the jurisprudent. Death to America. Death to England. Death to Israel." To quote an Indonesian cleric: "The Quran has all the guidelines, rules, norms, laws and punishments we need...If the Prophet carried a spear then...we can carry an M-16." To quote a children's program by an Egyptian cleric: "Sa'id, the 15-year-old child, was martyred for the sake of Allah. He died happy." The examples from the clerics of Iran, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Indonesia--the leaders of the Muslim world--are endless.
