Abstract

This study proposes a theology of religious moderation integrated into the curriculum design of Christian universities. Such a theological framework is expected to address the exclusive and intolerant attitudes still found among students. Christian universities bear a strategic responsibility to cultivate ethical awareness and civic responsibility in students from the perspective of Christian theology. The author employed a quantitative research method to collect data on the extent to which students at three Christian universities in Indonesia understand, internalize, and practice religious moderation. The findings reveal that intolerant, racist, and skeptical attitudes persist among students. Therefore, a theology of religious moderation is urgently needed to strengthen students’ understanding, attitudes, and constructive engagement in a pluralistic society. This study recommends the integration of a theology of religious moderation into higher education curriculum design, explicitly linking Christian theological perspectives with civic responsibility in a diverse society.
