action alert! Attacks on religious minorities in Indonesia have increased in number and hostility. The government must stop enabling discrimination. Indonesia: Protect Your Religious Minorities please share it helps!     Dear Arfin, Last year, there were more than 250 attacks on religious minorities in Indonesia. But instead of taking action to stop the violence, government policies increase their likelihood and don't even provide support for the victims. Demand Indonesia reform the law to protect religious minorities. Blasphemy laws in Indonesia only recognize six religions, and national worship center laws give more influence and power to majority religions. Officials often reject permits to build worship centers for minority religions and harass those who stand up for their rights. Meanwhile, the attacks against minorities have grown more hostile and criminals are rarely -- if ever -- punished. Freedom of religion is a fundamental right. Tell Indonesia you expect the government to respect the faithful of all religions. Thank you for taking action, Emily V. Care2 and ThePetitionSite Team
