Indonesia is not a religious state nor is it a secular state, but Indonesia is a religious country where in the foundation of the state namely Pancasila and in the first precept says the One and Only God. Indonesian people who adhere to various religious traditions can live together and side by side based on Pancasila and the Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia. One of the religions believed by the people of Indonesia is Christianity where a collection of Christians is called the Church. In certain places there are frictions between the church and non-Christian communities. The state has a role to maintain the relationship between the church and the community based on Pancasila and the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia.
