Islamic Tolerance in Indonesia
Islamic fundamentalists in Indonesia are taking advantage of a government decree to shut down Christian churches in the nationâs capital. According to Compass Direct News Service, Letter of Decision 137 allows the forcible closure of existing Christian churches in response to objections from the surrounding community. Certain Muslim leaders have reportedly organized such protests and complaints in several Jakarta communities against established and properly licensed Christian houses of worship, resulting in at least four closures. In at least one case demonstrators are said to have paraded in front of the churche with gasoline containers, threatening arson.
