"So it is natural and legitimate if the pattern of religion is displayed to the public as long as it does not violate the applicable law, but this argument is just rhetoric to avoid the accusations as anti-NKRI group," he said in Jakarta, Thursday (22/2/2018).
According to him, in reality they use the slogans and symbols of religion and are often expressed in the language of hatred and hostility towards different parties. The rise of lecture incitement and hate speech in certain mosques proves the strengthening of radical religious beliefs and endangers unity and unity.
"The mosque is actually made a place of worship to God and the da'wah soothing the function switch into a hate speech and hostility spreader," he said.
