Muslim Leader of Largest Muslim Country – An Apostate? Ho-Ho-Ho!
=======
The Muslim President of the world’s largest Muslim country has been accused of ‘apostasy’ -why?
He intends to wish his Christian fellow-citizens a Merry Christmas!
============================

Misbach said Christmas greetings make Muslims apostates because it means acknowledging the existence of other religions.
Aaah, so we don’t exist?
Sad, really!
Yet few sane Indonesians agree with the bigot.

My frequent Muslim visitors wish me a Merry Christmas, as I greet them at Idul Fitri, when Ramadhan ends!
And every one of them regards the FPI as a disgrace to their creed.

In contrast to the FPI, the Board of Nahdlatul Ulama – a very big Muslim organization in Indonesia, 100 times the size of the FPI – – argued that Christmas greetings are a form of religious tolerance. That attitude is not considered to affect the faith and identity of a Muslim. “The attitude of mutual respect has nothing to do with religious recognition,” said Yusuf, one of the Chairman of NU.
