Pastoral Care for Christian and Muslim Women Regarding Radicalism in Indonesia.

RADICALISM; PASTORAL care

Women are known as those who give birth to life and maintain life. However, the conflict that occurred in Indonesia has destroyed lives and made many women victims. In subsequent developments, women are not only victims but also perpetrators or victimizers, particularly in religious-based conflicts because of their involvement in radicalism movements. This happens a lot among Muslim women to defend their religion. The question that arises is whether the same thing also happens among Christian women as a result of the pressure and oppression they experience from the majority group, namely Muslims. Research on this topic was carried out using a mixed method between quantitative and qualitative research. This topic is reviewed from a feminist perspective. This research will be carried out in pastoral care to prevent women from being involved in radical movements and encourage them to become agents of peace who seek positive radicalism or peaceful radicalism.
