Abstract

Focusing on violations of Christian religious freedom in Indonesia, this article examines violations of the Christian minority’s religious freedom by means of unfair laws. Even more impressive, the state participates in shackling Christian’s freedom and belief by creating discriminatory laws. Based on unfair law, the state contributes to violations of the right to religious freedom, such as the rejection of the establishment of houses of worship and the prohibition of performing worship. As a result, the Christian minority is one of the most vulnerable minority religions in Indonesia. Places of worship are sacred, so they are unreachable by positive law. Keywords: Christian Minority, Freedom of Religion, Worship, Violation, Illegal Law
