STRING TOGETHERNESS
Togetherness is not theory but condition. This terminology means that togetherness is not learned but it is passed through. Togetherness, concord, and fraternity are the values that stick on local norm especially villager society. This togetherness values also become the social capital which can make closer the differences either ideology or religion in the spirit of concord and fraternity.
In the village society, togetherness values become the push power in tolerance life. The special simplicity in village society life is shown in solidarity for public matters. This Solidarity tradition is tradition from the ancient people, which is still depended to make closer the fraternity.
Between the theory and action, there are differences frequently. The theory not always can be support to know the society reality. By passing through the society life, the life reality will be more obvious. (by Tiyar- source: SULUH)
AMONG BELIEVERS MOVEMENT
There are none of any religion organization would like to cal have less faith compare to the others. That why interfaith movement better not call themselves as the most right of any faith, but persuade people to care to humanity with any ritual limited, because this movement is talk about social and not talk about ritual or politic. Ritual matter is just back to the person themselves to do what they believe. This movement is not easy and it would get many contra action from people who did not like it, but it part of the risk of the movement. It needs to understand that shalenge need to response wisely and did not judge as the wrong person. Because the right and the wrong is God right, not human right.
Because this is interfaith movement, so it need to be done together, so it wont get any suspicious as islamisation. The action is not together, but more than that. Hold hands with many other social element to care about humanity. But it need to be consider again that this movement also have a risk enter political aspects to access the thome by it’s member. It would be better if the movement is social cultural movement to enlighten of human behavior and attitude to another human that made by the same Creotor.
