Abstract

Intolerance has been a major concern in religious life in the disruption era. This current study aims to discuss local wisdom that has helped maintain religious harmony and tolerance in Watu Asa of Central Sumba. The study was qualitative and descriptive in nature, while the investigation was carried out through participatory observation on the dynamics of religious life and in-depth interviews with religious and traditional leaders in Watu Asa Village. The results of the investi­gation confirm that the three religious communities, i.e. Christians, Marapu, and Muslims, can coexist peacefully because of the local wisdom and strong kinship. The local wisdom embedded in the tradition of tana nyuwu watu lissi, palomai or palonggamai, kalli kawana kalli kawinni, pandula wikki, mandara, and paoli, promotes the values of love, respect, mutual cooperation, and acceptance of one another. Those values are believed to be a social cohesion that interconnects interreligious people, regardless of their geographical, ethnic, and gender differences. Taken together, these results highlight the importance of the values of local wisdom as counter-narratives against intolerant religious ideology.

Abstract

This study aims to identify the level of religious tolerance in public religious universities in Indonesia, especially in the Central Indonesia region, and to understand the factors that influence students' tolerant attitudes. A mixed methods approach was used in this study, which involved collecting quantitative data through a Likert-scale questionnaire and qualitative data through Focus Group Discussions (FGDs) in several Islamic, Christian, and Hindu faith-based universities. Quantitative data were analyzed using quantitative descriptive statistical tests, while qualitative data were analyzed using interpretative phenomenological analysis (IPA) to explore students' experiences in implementing religious tolerance.The results showed that the level of religious tolerance in state religious universities tends to be stable, with the dimension of reasonableness (ability to think logically) showing the highest value, followed by the dimensions of empathy and fairness. Female students tend to have higher tolerance potential, and the experience of interacting with people of other religions has a significant effect on increasing tolerance. However, the lack of space for interfaith encounters in the campus environment is an obstacle to the real application of the concept of tolerance.

Abstract

Abstract: This research explores models of interreligious tolerance within the phygital neighborhood as practiced by the Young Interfaith Peacemaker Community. In collecting research data, I employ qualitative methods through a phenomenology approach by conducting interviews and observation on websites and social medias such as Instagram of the Young Interfaith Peacemaker Community – Indonesia. From this research, I found that YICP campaigned for peace and tolerance through physical and digital neighborhoods. YIPC is enthusiastic about promoting a peace generation through young peacemakers. Interestingly, YIPC has consciously been involved in the theological, spiritual, dialogue of action and dialogue of life as well as conducting a holistic dialogue through the dialogue of head, dialogue of heart, dialogue of hands, and dialogue of holiness. Those models of dialogue can be seen through the activism of YIPC, such as youth peace camps, peace forums, book reviews, scriptural reasoning, visits to places of worship, peace campaigns on social media, and various other peaceful actions. These activities take place on physical and digital platforms. YIPC also created peaceful dialogue, practicing true tolerance by caring interreligious friendship. In the phygital neighborhood, interreligious tolerance should employ the virtues of interreligious dialogue, such as humility, openness, commitment, interconnection or commonality, acceptance, hospitality, mutual understanding, hospitality, and the possibility of mutual growth and change. Keywords: Interreligious Dialogue; Interreligious Tolerance; Phygital Neighborhood; YIPC.
