Abstract

The harmony of diversity in religion-ethnic-culture- is the dream of allpluralistic Indonesian components. Dialogue is one possibility as well as ahope to make unity in diversity towards harmony despite of the pessimisticfeelings that there is no truly ideal dialogue and interfaith meeting happen.The ideas and examples in this paper open up the optimistic feelings behindthe pessimism. That is, when ‘others’ become’ friends’ to be trusted, whenpersonal assumptions are changed and ‘Me’ and ‘Others’ recognize themistakes of each other in history that have passed through historical motions,and when’ Me’ and’ Others ‘can move beyond dialogue to work together in asociety with its beginnings and small ways. At that point that’ Me ‘and’ others’can overcome the history that has divided ‘me’ and ‘the other’ into two worldsby line different sharp demarcation.
