Kapital Simbolik dalam Pertaruhan Kehormatan (Honor-Shame): Tubuh Titus danNegosiasi Patronase Paulus dengan Elit Yerusalem dalam Galatia 2:1-10
type: item
description: Abstract This article analyzes the dynamics of symbolic capital, honor-shame, and patronage in Galatians 2:1-10. Employing socio rhetorical interpretation as the primary methodological approach, the study integrates Pierre Bourdieu’s theory of symbolic capital with the socio-cultural framework of honor shame and the patron-client system in the first century Mediterranean world. It argues that Paul’s refusal to circumcise Titus constitutes a strategy of symbolic negotiation that dismantles the religious hegemony of the Jerusalem elite. Through an analysis of inner texture, intertexture, social cultural texture, and ideological texture, the body of Titus is shown to function not merely as a narrative detail but as a site of symbolic contestation, a medium through which Paul subverts the established structure of honor and redefines religious legitimacy on the basis of divine revelation and grace rather than law and ritual. This study concludes that Paul’s rhetorical strategy in Galatians 2:1-10 effects an epistemological shift in the formation of the early Christian community, relocating the center of honor from ethnic and ritual purity to an inclusive mission and ethical solidarity. Abstrak Artikel ini menganalisis dinamika kapital simbolik, kehormatan-rasa malu (honor-shame), dan patronase dalam Galatia 2:1-10. Dengan menggunakan metode tafsir sosio-retorika sebagai pendekatan utama, penulis mengintegrasikan teori kapital simbolik Pierre Bourdieu dengan kerangka sosio-kultural honor-shame dan sistem patron-klien dalam dunia Mediterania abad pertama. Tulisan ini berargumen bahwa penolakan Paulus untuk menyunat Titus merupakan sebuah strategi negosiasi simbolik yang membongkar hegemoni religius elite Yerusalem. Melalui analisis innertexture, intertexture, social-cultural texture, dan ideological texture, tubuh Titus tidak sekadar hadir sebagai detail naratif, melainkan sebagai arena pertarungan kapital simbolik, yakni sebuah medium yang dipakai Paulus untuk membalik st…

Menenun Relasi Antara Manusia, Alam dan Yang Ilahi: Sebuah Refleksi Teologi Ekologi Melalui Sesajen dan Worldview Masyarakat Jawa dengan Model Teologi Kontekstual Menurut Bevans
type: item
description: Abstract The ecological crisis is a phenomenon that is currently occurring widely in various parts of the world, including Indonesia. Natural disasters are a common phenomenon and already part of the natural cycle, but they are different from anthropogenic disasters caused by human actions. In this article, the author starts from concern about the separation of the relation between human and nature, who are fellow creatures of God. Through this concern, the author attempts to review the shift of the relation between human, nature and the Divine, and strive to reconnect through the sesajen tradition of offerings in the worldview of Javanese society. This review utilizes Contextual Theology developed by Stephen B. Bevans and builds upon Aloysius Pieris’ Asian Theology. Through writing this article, it was found that Western Theology, which is dominant in Christian religious teaching, has had a significant impact on disconnection between human and nature. This is vastly different from Asian Theology that is represented by the worldview of Javanese society, namely the close relationship between human and nature which is connected with the Divine through sesajen tradition. Robert P. Borrong stated that the world is dominated by the technosphere and must be balanced by the ethosphere, human ethics in relation to the environment. Recognizing this, the ethics of solidarity becomes a Christian ecological ethic that seeks to weave harmony into the relationship between human and nature. Abstrak Krisis ekologi merupakan fenomena yang sedang banyak terjadi di berbagai belahan dunia, termasuk di Indonesia. Bencana alam merupakan fenomena yang lumrah dan sudah merupakan bagian dari siklus alam, namun berbeda dengan bencana antropogenik yang disebabkan oleh ulah manusia. Dalam artikel ini, penulis berangkat dari keresahan akan keterpisahan relasi antara manusia dengan alam yang merupakan sesama makhluk ciptaan Allah. Melalui keresahan ini, penulis berusaha meninjau pergeseran relas…

Pemujaan atau Penghormatan?: Refleksi Konsep Anamnesis dalam Tradisi Sembahyang kepada Leluhur pada Malam Sincia
type: item
description: Abstract The relationship between Christian faith and culture is often marked by suspicion, particularly toward traditional religious practices that are perceived as conflicting with the Gospel. In the Indonesian context, the legacy of Western missionary movements has significantly shaped Christian attitudes that tend to regard Eastern cultures, including ancestral veneration within Chinese traditions, as forms of idolatry to be rejected. One practice that exemplifies this theological tension is the ritual of honoring ancestors during the Lunar New Year (Sincia). This paper critically examines whether such practices should be understood solely as worship, or whether they may be reinterpreted as acts of remembrance and respect that resonate with Christian theology. Employing Stephen B. Bevans’ countercultural model of contextual theology, this paper offers a critical–dialogical reading of ancestral veneration in Chinese culture. The analysis is further developed through the Christian concept of anamnesis, which understands remembrance not merely as recalling the past, but as a faith practice that makes the past meaningfully present within the life of the community. Engaging the theological insights of Stephen B. Bevans and Aloysius Pieris, this paper argues that honoring ancestors does not inherently contradict Christian faith when detached from elements of worship and reinterpreted as an anamnestic practice. Rather than reinforcing a rigid dichotomy between faith and culture, this study proposes a contextual theological framework that enables Chinese Christians to embody their faith without abandoning their cultural identity. Abstrak Relasi antara iman Kristen dan budaya kerap ditandai oleh sikap kecurigaan, khususnya terhadap praktik-praktik religius tradisional yang dianggap bertentangan dengan Injil. Dalam konteks Indonesia, warisan misi Barat turut membentuk pola pikir Kekristenan yang cenderung menilai budaya Timur, termasuk tradisi penghormatan kepada leluhur …

title: Tiada Tuhan Selain Pemilik Kapital: Ketidakadilan Hak Petani dan Eksploitasi Alam pada Konflik Agraria dalam Jerat Kapitalisme di Indonesia Melalui Lagu “Tiada Tuhan Selain Pemilik Kapital” Karya Efek Rumah Kaca
description: Abstract This article provides an explanation of the reality of human injustice and greed towards others and nature. Agrarian conflict is a growing issue, and it is crucial for us to collectively pay attention to farmers's rights to their land, as well as the state of nature that continues to be exploited by capitalists seeking continuous profit. In reviewing this reality, the author reflects on the song by Efek Rumah Kaca, entitled "There is no God but the Capitalist." The discussion continues with a contextual theological perspective, specifically linking the thought of Aloysius Pieris to theology in the Asian context and examining its impact on disrupting the natural balance in Indonesia. In the Asian context, poverty and religiosity must lead us to a liberating theology. Therefore, every human being needs to increase their sensitivity to build a universal faith and stand alongside the oppressed to plant the seeds of justice for a more humane and peaceful world. It is the duty of every person, regardless of religion, to be God's partner in the welfare of fellow human beings and the universe He has given us. Abstrak Artikel ini memberikan penjabaran terkait realita ketidakadilan dan keserakahan manusia terhadap sesama dan alam. Konflik agraria menjadi isu yang terus meningkat dan penting untuk kita bersama menaruh perhatian kepada hak petani terhadap tanahnya, juga keadaan alam yang terus dikeruk oleh pihak kapital yang ingin terus-menerus meraih keuntungan. Dalam meninjau realita ini, penulis berefleksi dari lagu karya Efek Rumah Kaca yang berjudul “Tiada Tuhan Selain Pemilik Kapital”. Pembahasan dilanjutkan dengan membahas sudut pandang teologi kontekstual, khususnya mengaitkan dengan pemikiran Aloysius Pieris untuk berteologi dalam konteks Asia dan dan melihat bagaimana dampaknya yang mengganggu keseimbangan alam di negara Indonesia. Dalam konteks Asia, kemiskinan dan religiositas harus membawa kita pada teologi yang membebaskan. Maka dari itu, setiap manusia p…

The Marginalised God: Teopoetika, Jalan Mistik, dan Seksualitas Pasca Tuhan
type: item
description: Abstract This article explores the concept of a marginalised God in the context of modernity and postmodernity, where secularization is understood not as the erasure of religion but as a transformation of humanity’s relationship with the Divine. Through a transdisciplinary approach integrating theopoetics, mystical paths, and sexuality, the text critically reflects on reconstructing spirituality amid technological dominance and data-driven logic. Theopoetics reimagines God not as an absolute entity but as an “event” manifest in everyday experiences, while Meister Eckhart’s mysticism emphasizes union with God (Unio Mystica) through ego dissolution and contemplative silence. The body and sexuality are positioned as mediums of transcendence, overcoming spirit-matter dualism, and fostering spiritual inclusivity amid diverse gender identities and sexual orientations. Challenges faced by Generation Z and Alpha in the digital age, such as alienation and existential void, are addressed through anatheism, which embraces doubt and cross-boundary dialogue. The document concludes that future spirituality must be inclusive, dialogical, and rooted in unconditional love, where God is present not through dogma but in grounded human relations. Principles like respect, compassion, sensitivity, and intimacy serve as pillars for building new spiritual spaces in the digital world. Abstrak Artikel ini mengeksplorasi konsep Tuhan yang termarginalkan dalam konteks modernitas dan postmodernitas, di mana sekularisasi dipahami bukan sebagai penghapusan agama melainkan sebagai transformasi relasi manusia dengan Yang Ilahi. Melalui pendekatan transdisipliner yang mengintegrasikan teopoetika, jalur-jalur mistik, dan seksualitas, teks ini merefleksikan secara kritis upaya rekonstruksi spiritualitas di tengah dominasi teknologi dan logika berbasis data. Teopoetika menghadirkan ulang Tuhan bukan sebagai entitas absolut melainkan sebagai sebuah “peristiwa” (event) yang termanifestasi dalam pengalama…

Meninjau Kristologi Kosmik melalui Gagasan Kristo-Kuantum John Polkinghorne dan Interkarnasi Catherine Keller
type: item
description: Abstract This article discusses the discourse of cosmic Christology, especially by utilizing conceptual insights in the world of quantum physics. Departing from the view that the concept of salvation of classical Christology which is only human-centered so that it tends to ignore cosmic-ecological aspects, it has an impact in the context of the current ecological crisis. Therefore, through this research, focusing on John Polkinghorne’s Christo-quantum concept and Catherine Keller’s inter-carnation, both offer the idea of the connection between God and nature through the incarnation of Christ. Polkinghorne connects the quantum world’s insights of wave-particle dualism and quantum entanglement to show the connection between Christ’s dual nature and the activity of the quantum world, while Keller views Christ’s incarnation as a form of cosmic presence that encompasses all elements of nature. The exploration of Polkinghorne’s and Keller’s thoughts, as well as ecological realities using qualitative methods based on literature review. The results show that both the Christo-quantum and inter-carnation concepts pave the way for a more holistic and ecological understanding of Christology, where salvation encompasses inter-entity relations in the universe both at the macro level (visible nature) and the micro level (nature at the quantum level). These two concepts show how all elements of nature are interrelated and play an important role in the manifestation of the Kingdom of God in the world. In the end, this paper aims to offer a holistic ecological paradigm based on cosmic-quantum Christology that emphasizes human ecological responsibility as an integral part of salvation. This paradigm supports an awareness of critical cosmic connectedness to deal with contemporary ecological issues, and shows that damage to nature has an impact on humanity and the relationship with God. Abstrak Artikel ini membahas diskursus Kristologi kosmik, khususnya dengan memanfaatkan wawasan konse…

Analisis Kritis terhadap Moderasi Beragama dalam Upaya Pengembangan Perdamaian dalam Konteks Kemajemukan Agama
type: item
description: Abstract This article critically analyzes the concept of religious moderation, which has become one of the Indonesian government’s strategic policies for peacebuilding within the context of religious pluralism. The ongoing religious conflicts that haunt the nation, coupled with state initiatives to manage diversity and the tensions between religious moderation and freedom of religion or belief, are key issues discussed in this article. The author employs qualitative research methods and conducts a literature study to gather data, including analyzing the book of Moderasi Beragama, published by the Ministry of Religious Affairs, which conceptualizes this idea. Further analysis is conducted on other relevant references, including literature on freedom of religion and belief, peacebuilding in religious pluralism, and related issues. The findings reveal that religious moderation, with its strengths, such as fostering a middle-path approach to religious expression (active moderation rather than passive), rejecting extremism and violence, and promoting inclusive religious texts, offers opportunities to support peacebuilding in the context of religious pluralism when implemented based on universal humanitarian values. By embracing tragedy, the victims transform into weavers of peace. However, the concept also faces critical challenges, including potential violations of freedom of religion or belief, as well as conceptual and practical limitations in addressing the root causes of complex religious conflicts. These include social injustice, poverty, restricted freedoms, lack of access to education, discriminatory regulations, and various structural dimensions, which are the main drivers of conflict. Therefore, reconceptualizing and recontextualization of religious moderation are necessary to transform it into a solution rather than merely an illusion.

Percaya, Serahkan Sisanya kepada Semesta: Spiritualitas Mistik dalam Lagu Ghea Indrawari “Terima Kasih Sudah Bertahan” serta Relevansinya dalam Kampanye Politik Sherly Tjoanda
type: item
description: Abstract This paper examines mystical spirituality in the song “Terima Kasih Sudah Bertahan” by Ghea Indrawari using the theory of mystical spirituality of Meister Eckhart-Dorothee Soelle. Through a qualitative approach, the author analyzes the lyrics of the song that reflect Ghea’s career journey in the music industry with three stages of mystical journey according to Eckhart-Soelle (amazement, letting go, and transformation) and the idea of sunder warumbe. Ghea, who was initially trapped in high expectations of her own strength, finally surrenders her work to God and undergoes a transformation to speak out about mental health issues. The relevance of this song in Sherly Tjoanda’s political campaign is seen when the song is used as a symbol of struggle and transformation, linking Ghea’s personal experiences with the political dynamics faced by Sherly. This study ultimately shows not only the relationship between art and spirituality, but also how both can be relevant in a political context. Abstrak Tulisan ini mengkaji spiritualitas mistik dalam lagu “Terima Kasih Sudah Bertahan” karya Ghea Indrawari menggunakan teori spiritualitas mistik Meister Eckhart-Dorothee Soelle. Melalui pendekatan kualitatif, penulis menganalisis lirik lagu yang mencerminkan perjalanan karir Ghea dalam industri musik dengan tiga tahapan perjalanan mistik menurut Eckhart-Soelle (kekaguman, melepaskan, dan transformasi) dan gagasan sunder warumbe. Ghea, yang awalnya terjebak dalam ekspektasi tinggi terhadap kekuatan dirinya, akhirnya menyerahkan hasil karyanya kepada Tuhan dan mengalami transformasi untuk bersuara tentang isu kesehatan mental. Relevansi lagu ini dalam kampanye politik Sherly Tjoanda terlihat ketika lagu tersebut digunakan sebagai simbol perjuangan dan transformasi, mengaitkan pengalaman pribadi Ghea dengan dinamika politik yang dihadapi Sherly. Penelitian ini akhirnya bukan hanya menunjukkan hubungan seni dan spiritualitas, tetapi juga bagaimana keduanya dapat relevan dalam …

I Dont Belong: Membaca Kembali Keluaran 2 : 11 - 15 melalui Kritik Psikologi Andrew Kille
type: item
description: Abstract Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID) is a condition characterized by the presence of two or more distinct identities, each with its own personality, memories, behaviors, and even ways of speaking. Moses, a Hebrew born to a Levite family and raised in the Egyptian court, exhibits a unique dynamic between his dual identities. This complexity is evident in Exodus 2:11-15, where Moses kills an Egyptian oppressing a Hebrew and later intervenes in a conflict between two Hebrews. When his actions become known, Moses flees to Midian. This paper aims to explore whether Moses's behavior in this passage can be interpreted as a manifestation of DID, using Andrew Kille's Psychological Biblical Criticism as a framework. The goal is to provide a deeper understanding of the identity dynamics in Exodus 2:11-15. Abstrak Dissociative Identity Disorder merupakan kondisi ketika seorang individu memiliki dua atau lebih identitas, yang memiliki kepribadian berbeda-beda. Masing-masing identitas memiliki sifat, memori, tingkah laku, dan bahkan gaya berbicara yang berbeda. Musa merupakan keturunan Lewi, orang Ibrani, yang dibesarkan dalam tradisi kerajaan Mesir. Dinamika dua identitas yang ia miliki ini diyakini menunjukkan kompleksitasnya dalam narasi Keluaran 2:11–15. Narasi menunjukkan bahwa Musa membunuh orang Mesir yang sedang menindas orang Ibrani, kemudian juga menunjukkan Musa yang menegur dua orang Ibrani yang kedapatan berkelahi. Oleh karena pembunuhan yang dilakukan Musa terungkap, ia kemudian melarikan diri ke Midian. Dengan demikian, tulisan ini bertujuan untuk meneliti apakah Musa termasuk dalam kategori individu dengan Dissociative Identity Disorder, dengan menggunakan Psychological Biblical Criticism yang diperkenalkan oleh Andrew Kille. Kritik ini bertujuan untuk memahami mengapa seseorang berperilaku demikian. Untuk melakukannya, penafsir perlu mengkaji perilaku manusia, termasuk intuisi, ingatan, persepsi, kepribadian, dan banyak faktor lain di bidang tersebut. Ha…

Beyond Boundaries: Mengundang yang Terpinggirkan ke Meja Perjamuan (Tafsir Lukas 14:12-14 melalui Perspektif Disabilitas)
type: item
description: Abstract Persons with disabilities continue to face various forms of discrimination and social exclusion, including limited access to education, employment, healthcare services, and participation in religious communities. Deeply rooted societal stigma often leads to their marginalization and devaluation. In the context of Christian theology, biblical texts have often been interpreted either literally or metaphorically in ways that associate disability with sin, lack of faith, or a condition that needs healing. Such interpretations reinforce the exclusion of persons with disabilities within churches and society. This study aims to interpret Luke 14:12-14 through the lens of disability theology to foster a more inclusive understanding. The findings indicate that a theological perspective on disability can serve as a foundation for churches and society to create a more just and inclusive environment, removing structural barriers that hinder the full participation of persons with disabilities in social and religious life. Abstrak Penyandang disabilitas masih menghadapi berbagai bentuk diskriminasi dan pengucilan sosial, baik dalam akses terhadap pendidikan, pekerjaan, layanan kesehatan, maupun partisipasi dalam komunitas keagamaan. Stigma yang mengakar dalam masyarakat sering kali menyebabkan mereka terasing dan kurang dihargai. Dalam konteks teologi Kristen, teks-teks Alkitab sering kali ditafsirkan secara literal maupun metaforis dengan kecenderungan memandang disabilitas sebagai akibat dosa, kurangnya iman, atau kondisi yang perlu disembuhkan. Pemahaman ini memperkuat marginalisasi penyandang disabilitas dalam gereja dan masyarakat. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menafsirkan teks Lukas 14:12-14 melalui perspektif disabilitas guna membangun pemahaman yang lebih inklusif. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa perspektif teologi disabilitas dapat menjadi landasan bagi gereja dan masyarakat dalam menciptakan lingkungan yang lebih adil dan inklusif, serta menghapus hambatan …

Melampaui Kedukaan: Analisis Strategi Coping Terhadap Perilaku Naomi dalam Kitab Rut 1:1-22
type: item
description: Abstract This article analyzes the character of Naomi in the Book of Ruth 1:1-22 through the coping strategies developed by Richard Lazarus and Susan Folkman. Naomi, who experienced the loss of her husband and two sons, faced a deep and complex crisis. This paper highlights how Naomi applied emotion-focused coping, which is a stress management strategy that focuses on managing emotions rather than eliminating or changing the problems that cause stress directly. This strategy is evident in Naomi’s behavior of releasing her two daughters-in-law for their own good and openly acknowledging her feelings about the bitter events, referring to herself as “Mara.” The analysis shows that although Naomi cannot change the tragic circumstances she is experiencing, she is able to express her emotions honestly and create space for inner healing. Through Naomi’s story, coping does not always have to be solution-oriented toward problems but can involve acceptance, emotional processing, and the reconstruction of meaning regarding the events or issues experienced. Naomi’s story also reflects that the grieving process is an emotional and cognitive journey that can lead to personal growth and transformation. Abstrak Tulisan ini menganalisis tokoh Naomi dalam Kitab Rut 1:1-22 melalui strategi coping yang dikembangkan oleh Richard Lazarus dan Susan Folkman. Naomi, yang mengalami kehilangan suami dan kedua anaknya, menghadapi krisis yang mendalam dan kompleks. Tulisan ini menyoroti bagaimana Naomi menerapkan emotion-focused coping, yaitu strategi penanganan stres yang berfokus pada pengelolaan emosi, bukan pada menghilangkan atau mengubah masalah yang menjadi penyebab stres secara langsung. Strategi ini tampak dalam perilaku Naomi yang melepaskan kedua menantunya demi kebaikan mereka dan pengakuan atas perasaannya secara terbuka terhadap peristiwa pahit, dengan menyebut dirinya “Mara”. Analisis ini menunjukkan bahwa meskipun Naomi tidak mampu mengubah keadaan tragis yang dialaminya, ia mam…

Eksistensi dalam Klik: Fenomena “Apapun Demi Konten” dalam Perspektif Homo Digitalis Budi Hardiman
type: item
description: Abstract The digital age has brought about fundamental changes in the way humans interact, communicate and express their existence. Social media such as TikTok and YouTube have become the main spaces for individuals to build their digital identities, often prioritizing engagement and economic benefits over ethical considerations. Based on Budi Hardiman’s philosophical perspective, this paper examines how digital existence not only affects human identity, but also fundamentally shapes their mindset and behavior. The concept of Homo Digitalis shows how humans are now increasingly controlled by technology, not just using it. The phenomenon of “anything for content” in the case of online begging & child exploitation trends reflects an over-reliance on digital technology to gain popularity and profit, which often unwittingly ignores ethical and social aspects. Through Budi Hardiman’s four strategies for structuring digital communication, it is hoped that social media will not only become a tool for entertainment and monetization, but also a means to build better social awareness and human values. Abstrak Era digital telah membawa perubahan mendasar dalam cara manusia berinteraksi, berkomunikasi, dan mengekspresikan eksistensinya. Media sosial seperti TikTok dan YouTube menjadi ruang utama bagi individu untuk membangun identitas digital mereka, sering kali mengutamakan engagement dan keuntungan ekonomi dibandingkan pertimbangan etis. Berdasarkan perspektif filsafat Budi Hardiman, tulisan ini mengkaji bagaimana eksistensi digital tidak hanya memengaruhi identitas manusia, tetapi juga membentuk pola pikir dan perilaku mereka secara fundamental. Konsep Homo Digitalis menunjukkan bagaimana manusia kini semakin dikendalikan oleh teknologi, bukan sekadar menggunakannya. Fenomena “apapun demi konten” dalam kasus tren mengemis online & eksploitasi anak mencerminkan ketergantungan berlebihan pada teknologi digital untuk meraih popularitas dan keuntungan, yang seringkali tanpa disa…

Fandom Tokoh Agama di Era Digital: Antara Spiritualitas, Popularitas, dan Tantangan Etis
type: item
description: Abstract This paper explores the phenomenon of religious figure fandom in the digital era through an interdisciplinary approach combining public theology, Christian ethics, and Gordon Lynch’s correlational and praxis-based theological method. It reveals a shift in the role of religious leaders from spiritual guides to public figures shaped by popular culture, particularly through the concepts of mediapheme and Fear of Missing Out (FOMO). Mediapheme describes how media-driven popularity shapes religious authority, while FOMO highlights the psychological pressure in digital culture that influences religious practice and identity. Using Lynch’s theological framework, the study emphasizes the importance of maintaining theology’s normative, contextual, and dynamic dimensions, urging readers to see popular culture not merely as a challenge but as a transformative space for digital spirituality. Abstract Tulisan ini mengkaji fenomena fandom terhadap tokoh agama di era digital dengan pendekatan lintas-disiplin yang menggabungkan teologi publik, etika Kristiani, serta pendekatan korelasional dan praksis dari Gordon Lynch. Fenomena ini menunjukkan pergeseran peran tokoh agama dari pembimbing spiritual menjadi figur publik yang tampil dalam logika budaya populer, melalui konsep mediapheme dan dorongan Fear of Missing Out (FOMO). Mediapheme menjelaskan bagaimana pencitraan dan viralitas membentuk otoritas religius, sementara FOMO menggambarkan tekanan sosial digital yang memengaruhi praktik keagamaan umat dan tokoh agama. Dengan kerangka teologis Lynch, tulisan ini menekankan pentingnya menjaga dimensi normatif, kontekstual, dan dinamis dalam refleksi iman, serta mengajak pembaca untuk melihat budaya populer bukan hanya sebagai tantangan, tetapi juga ruang potensial bagi spiritualitas yang reflektif dan transformatif.

Membangun Generasi Alpha yang Seimbang: Peran Keluarga Kristen dalam Menghadapi Tantangan Gaya Hidup Sedentari
type: item
description: Abstract This article critically analyzes the concept of religious moderation, which has become one of the Indonesian government’s strategic policies for peacebuilding within the context of religious pluralism. The ongoing religious conflicts that haunt the nation, coupled with state initiatives to manage diversity and the tensions between religious moderation and freedom of religion or belief, are key issues discussed in this article. The author employs qualitative research methods and conducts a literature study to gather data, including analyzing the book of Moderasi Beragama, published by the Ministry of Religious Affairs, which conceptualizes this idea. Further analysis is conducted on other relevant references, including literature on freedom of religion and belief, peacebuilding in religious pluralism, and related issues. The findings reveal that religious moderation, with its strengths, such as fostering a middle-path approach to religious expression (active moderation rather than passive), rejecting extremism and violence, and promoting inclusive religious texts, offers opportunities to support peacebuilding in the context of religious pluralism when implemented based on universal humanitarian values. By embracing tragedy, the victims transform into weavers of peace. However, the concept also faces critical challenges, including potential violations of freedom of religion or belief, as well as conceptual and practical limitations in addressing the root causes of complex religious conflicts. These include social injustice, poverty, restricted freedoms, lack of access to education, discriminatory regulations, and various structural dimensions, which are the main drivers of conflict. Therefore, reconceptualizing and recontextualization of religious moderation are necessary to transform it into a solution rather than merely an illusion.
