Abstract

This article is examining the practice of mono-religious teaching in public school and its influence on students' religious life which tends to mire on exclusive practice in East Lombok. The practice of mono-religious teaching in public schools not merely embark compulsion and religious exclusivity but also create discrimination towards other students for the tendency of applying only one religious practice at school. The impact of the religious praxis in public schools is the force and confinement on the students. Simultaneously, the government keeps producing sharia-based laws that stand for majority notwithstanding the laws fully beneficial for the majority group. Yet the disadvantages for minorities from the laws are obvious. The method used for this research is a qualitative method, the data are collected by interviewing some students from junior public school in East Lombok. There are 10 informants from 4 public schools at the central city of East Lombok, students interviewed are from different gender and religious backgrounds and questioned about their religious experiences at schools. This article comes up with the argument that religious education policy in Indonesia focuses on mono religious study with a vision to build students good morality through religion, however the result of this system is creating the tendency of exclusivity among majority students and restriction for minority students in public school. Mono-religious study and its practice at public schools somehow exceeds religious practice in religious schools and this creates school rules that force students to implement religious activity which is irrelevant with the principal of the public school. And generally, the facility for religious activities only accommodates students who are affiliated with majority belief. The problems that the mono-religious system causes discrimination towards minorities regarding the right for religious activities at public school. The conclusion will be served together with the critique towards the impact of mono-religious teaching in Public School.
