Building religious harmony is the duty and responsibility of all Indonesian people. Church is an essential part of Indonesian society which is also obliged to develop religious harmony. Answering the question of how the church should behave and act in a pluralistic society is to offer the teaching concept of the mindset of Christ. As it is contained in Philippians 2: 5, the church has to serve as the foundation of religious harmony. The mindset of Christ in question is the act of Christ who does not defend his rights, the act of Christ who willingly becomes the same as an ordinary man and the act of Christ who takes the form of a slave and acts like a slave who cares for the interests of his master. This study utilizes technical data analysis with a descriptive-interpretive model, which is to elaborate the focus of the study by parsing and re-interpreting it in a certain context. In this case the text described is Philippians 2: 5 using the hermeneutic method as a scalpel and then interpreted in the context of religious harmony in Indonesia. Membangun kerukunan umat beragama merupakan tugas dan tanggungjawab seluruh rakyat Indonesia. Gereja merupakan salah satu bagian dari masyarakat Indonesia yang juga berkewajiban untuk berkontribusi mewujudkan kerukunan umat beragama. Menjawab pertanyaan bagaimana gereja harus bersikap dan bertindak di tengah lingkup masyarakat yang majemuk adalah dengan menawarkan konsep pengajaran mengenai mindset Kristus yang terkandung dalam surat Filipi 2:5 untuk dijadikan sebagai landasan gereja membangun kerukunan umat beragama. Mindset Kristus yang dimaksud adalah tindakan Kristus yang tidak mempertahankan haknya, tindakan Kristus yang dengan rela menjadi sama dengan manusia dan tindakan Kristus yang mengambil rupa hamba dan berlaku seperti hamba yang mementingkan kepentingan tuannya. Penelitian ini menggunakan teknis analisis data dengan model deskripitf-interpretatif yaitu mengelaborasi fokus penelitian dengan cara mengurai dan memaknai kembali pada konteks tertentu. Dalam hal ini teks yang diurai adalah surat Filipi 2:5 menggunakan metode hermeneutik sebagai pisau bedah lalu dimaknai pada konteks kerukunan umat beragama di Indonesia.

AbstractThe relevance of the reformation for the development of modern liberty rights is much debated. Although the Protestant Reformers fought for the »Freedom of a Christian« against religious patronization, they were not tolerant in a modern sense of the term. However, the Reformation released long-term impulses which contributed to the origin and formation of a modern civil society, e. g. the respect for the autonomy of the individual over against the church, the passion for education, the emphasis on the »universal priesthood of all believers«, and the appreciation of civil professions. Long historical learning processes were necessary, though, until the Protestant churches acknowledged and adopted modern liberty rights, a participatory democracy and a pluralistic society as genuine forms of expression of a Protestant ethos.

The concept of self-secularisation has been identified by Wolfgang Huber, bishop of the German Evangelische Kirche in Deutschland (EKD), when he reflected on the context of the church in Germany. Self-secularisation however, is a worldwide phenomenon with effects in South Africa as well. After discussing the origin of the concept and its interpretations, the author tries to identify instances of self-secularisation within especially the Afrikaansspeaking churches, although not limited to them, in South Africa. The theological jargon comes under scrutiny, civil religion, the pluralistic society within which the church exists, the effect of emotionalism, the commercialisation of the church, the role of mass media and the phenomenon of infotainment, rationalisation and a lack of ethics are some of the elements identified and discussed. Finally the author attempts a correction by indicating what the church ought to do in order to counter the effects of self-secularisation.

Catholic teens Indonesia is part of the Church in Indonesia and the Indonesian people. Indonesia consists of thousands of islands that stretched from Sabang to Merauke. This fact opens the possibility of a fairly wide occurrence of the encounter between cultures and simultaneous cross-cultural. This diversity is certainly a logical consequence to an enrichment of civilizations and diversity (plurality), although also contains elements of the loss. Plurality of Indonesian society on the one hand can make the Catholic teens swept away in the swift currents of the community to lose our identity or conflict. However Plurality can also awaken in the Catholic teen award nature between one race to the other races, between ethnic or tribal one with the other tribes, between groups with one another. In a pluralistic society such as this, the Catholic teens called to the apostolate. Through the act of self-discovery, live in love and have a sense of tolerance of differences is the real form of the apostolate.

Soundscape of a specific transportation event conveys not only messages for communication purpose but also becomes a soundmark for the riders. This Taipei MRT cabin soundscape study documents the series of acoustic events during the rides between two stations: Shandao Temple and Taipei Main Station. Taxonomy of sounds, technical data analysis and soundwalks were used as the soundscape data collection methods. Social, mechanical, and indicators sounds were identified as the three main sound classifications. Spectrogram showed the distinguished frequencies and orders of the acoustic events. On train announcements used four languages due to the country’s cultural and social history. This fascinating, unique, and repetitive Taipei MRT cabin soundscape adds to the exuberant soundscape and identity of Taipei.

In recent years historians have grown sceptical about attempts to trace connections between puritanism and liberty. Puritans, we are told, sought a godly society, not a pluralistic one. The new emphasis has been salutary, but it obscures the fact that a minority of zealous Protestants argued forcefully for the toleration of heresy, blasphemy, Catholicism, non-Christian religions, and even atheism. During the English revolution, a substantial number of Baptists, radical Independents, and Levellers insisted that the New Testament paradigm required the church to be a purely voluntary, non-coercive community in the midst of a pluralistic society governed by a ‘merely civil’ state. Although their position was not without its ambiguities, it constituted a startling break with the Constantinian assumptions of magisterial Protestantism.

Time-domain or transient electromagnetic (TEM) methods are used routinely in environmental, hydrogeological, energy, and mineral resources investigations owing to their ease of use and ability to generate diagnostic data. In some typical field situations, the gross structure of the subsurface may be approximately 1-D, so 1-D interpretation schemes can be used to retrieve an interpretive model for the depth soundings.

A computer program has been devised for analysis of proportional design in architecture and has been applied to the church of the Cistercian abbey of Ebrach, Franconia, using detailed survey measurements. Reference for this is a coefficient base of over a thousand proportions of numbers and geometric figures. The investigation has clarified the essential methodological principles for analysis of building geometry including coincidences and ambiguities of proportions, their interaction with the basic uncertainty of measurement, the interdependence between structural reference levels in the building, and the mixing of intention, collateral, and accidental relations. The program has decoded the design of part of the church and its system of measurements showing their proportions to be based on geometrical figures of polygons. The principal measurements were found to represent the sides of these polygons, and their reference, the radius of construction. Most other measurements were derived by systematic division or multiplication of the principal ones, frequently by use of the quadratura. Results also permit conclusions about precision of construction and the role of foot measurements.
