NO Merry Christmas (certain individual?)

Can't Merry Christmas. Fugacious title appears on the bizzare. Forget it first.
I say Merry Christmas to all who celebrate.
Without knowing my relegion, I also say Happy Idul Fitri when the Islam fasting month ended, Happy Waicak to who celebrate, I also say Happy Nyepi-Galungan-Kuningan (Hindu Bali ritual celebration) and so on.
But there are some people who do not say Congratulations to the people who do not have same religion with them, regard the other as Kafir. They only knew that only Jesus saves, only Allah and Muhammad is so saving it and so on.
Each of the religious fanatics and the other is rubbish.
Clearly they do not even know mixing on the lowest level of social mixing. But they have.

Task in front of the eye so that Truly Mixing can be realized.

Comments can also be addressed directly at: gsarwa@indosat.net.id

Additional: I've talked with someone who confess post graduate from Religion-Comparison faculty, Egypt that says the act does not provide for the Congratulations of different religious person was certain individual act.
The problem is that certain individual is quite a lot and they are just follow what their (religion) leader said.

Kahwin Campur Ajang Cari Jodoh

Ajang Cari Pasangan Take Me Out Indonesia di Indosiar tampaknya menuai sukses, sehingga ditayangkan pula Take Him Out Indonesia bahkan Tayang Ulang Take Me Out Indonesia juga dilakukan. Durasi Tayang masing-masing acara -/+ 2,5 jam, maka ditambah acara Happy Song berdurasi -/+ 2 jam yang disiarkan tiap hari Senin s/d Sabtu - Indosiar tampaknya akan leluasa mengisi sisa slot acaranya dengan acara-acara lainnya yang bermutu.

Sebenarnya acara Reality Show Ajang Cari Jodoh semacam ini bukan yang pertama kali ditayangkan di Indonesia, dahulu pernah ada acara serupa yang dinamai Date Express. Bedanya acara yang sekarang ditayangkan Indosiar ini bersifat 'One from Many' yang maksudnya Seseorang memilih dari Banyak Calon Seseorang yang disukainya, sedangkan Date Express bersifat 'One/Many to One/Many yang artinya Tiap-tiap Orang memilih Sesorang dari Banyak Calon. Date Express mirip Setengah Kompetisi dimana masing-masing Peserta berkesempatan tanya jawab dengan Semua calon pasangannya satu persatu. Date Express lebih ditujukan kepada remaja ataupun pemuda-pemudi berusia tidak lebih dari 24 tahun. Pertanyaan di antara mereka cukup 'ganas', berani dan terbuka sesuai dengan Usia Muda mereka, meliputi Keperawanan, Sex sebelum Nikah, Banyak Kali Pacaran dan sebagainya.

Dalam acara Take Me/Him Out Indonesia si Pemilih memperkenalkan dirinya dengan Nama, Pekerjaan dan Agama (walaupun ada juga yang tidak menyebutkan Agamanya).
Agama tampaknya merupakan kriteria penting untuk Memilih atau Dipilih, sehingga ada Pemilih yang bertanya kepada Calon yang mungkin akan Dipilihnya: Apakah anda Kristen?
Pekerjaan yang Mapan untuk Pria/Lelaki tampaknya juga modal besar bagi dirinya untuk Memilih atau Dipilih. Ada seorang Direktur Utama pria yang sampai harus memilih satu di antara sembilan wanita yang masih memberi kesempatan padanya untuk memilih.
Beda Usia yang jauh tampaknya juga banyak dihindari. Seseorang Wanita berusia 21 tahun segera mematikan lampu (menolak), ketika calonnya berusia 37 tahun dan hanya beda usia 2 tahun dengan ayahnya. Walaupun demikian ada Wanita Matang yang Gesit berusia 24 tahun yang memilih Pria Mapan berusia 38 tahun.
Model, Artis, Seniman ataupun yang Nyentrik tampaknya sulit untuk mendapatkan jodoh, karena kurang mapan dan juga penampilannya yang mungkin tidak sesuai dengan keinginan si Pencari Jodoh. Walaupun demikian ada seorang Model Catwalk Cantik berusia 21 tahun yang 'berhasil' dalam menemukan jodohnya. Kadang-kadang saya berpikir apakah sebagian calon-calon ini memang sengaja disiapkan oleh Indosiar sendiri sebagai Penggembira untuk memeriahkan suasana. Juru Keplok, Juru Sorak ataupun Juru Tawa dalam acara TV sekarang ini kan lagi marak. Coba saja perhatikan baik-baik tayangan: Bukan Empat Mata, Tawa Sutra, Missing Lyrics bahkan Happy Song (Dalam Happy Song selalu ada Sorakan: Ayo ... (Nama Peserta)).
Paket maksudnya Single Parent. Single Parent Pria maupun Single Parent Wanita tampaknya sama-sama sulit untuk mendapatkan jodoh. Sampai-sampai Jessie meneteskan air matanya, ketika untuk kesekian kalinya tidak terpilih dan bergumam: Tidak Laku Lagi. Baru ada masing-masing satu Single Parent Pria dan Single Parent Wanita yang mendapatkan jodohnya.
Wanita Sangat Cerdas. Yenita seorang Ibu Dosen dengan 5 gelar tampaknya juga sulit untuk mendapatkan jodohnya bahkan sekarang ini sudah tidak tampil lagi, entah mengundurkan diri atau entah sengaja 'dilengserkan' oleh Indosiar? Tampaknya Pria belum berani menghadapi Wanita Sangat Cerdas dibandingkan menghadapi Wanita Mapan.

Sejauh ini baru ada satu pasang peserta yang putus cintanya sebelum mencapi usia seminggu. Juiz si Penari Salsa menyatakan bahwa belum menemukan gregetnya selama ini bersama Alfonso yang Cukup Mapan.
Kemapanan/Harta boleh jadi bukan satu-satunya faktor penentu mencari Soul Mate apalagi kalau sang Wanita juga Mapan atau Anaknya Orang Kaya.

Mengamati Reality Show dengan cukup banyak Sample semacam ini, walaupun mungkin tidak cukup Valid/Sah, karena bukan Random Sampling, tetapi hanya melalui Audisi, sebenarnya dapat menggambarkan Pola Pencarian Jodoh.
Yang luput dari perhatian mungkin adalah Perbedaan Etnis. Menurut pengamatan saya Pria Etnis Cina hanya memilih Wanita Etnis Cina, tetapi Pria Etnis Pribumi ada yang berusaha memilih Wanita Etnis Cina. Yang menggembirakan adalah adanya beberapa Wanita Pribumi yang berhasil memilih Pria Etnis Cina (Take Him Out Indonesia). Pengamatan saya ini mungkin saja bisa salah mengingat tidak pernah sekalipun peseserta menyebutkan Suku/Ras (Etnis Cina) mereka, kecuali yaa ... Agama.
Pernikahan mungkin masih jauh, tetapi bukan mustahil beberapa Kawin Campur Silang menuju Pembauran Sejati akan terwujud melalui Ajang Cari Jodoh ini.

Different Religion Mix Married

In Indonesia Different Ethnic/Race/Tribe Mix Married with Same Religion seems easier than going Different Religion/Faith Mix Married with Same Ethnic/Race/Tribe.

2 weeks ago, I attended the wedding reception of my sister away; wedding bless done in Jakarta Cathedral Church, but I did not present.
Mix Married of Different Religion Chinese fellow is given Dispensation by the Catholic Church, but not by the Non-Catholic Christian Church.
A matter of 'strange' happens when wedding bless will occur, the Christian Non-Catholics want to participate in the wedding bless ceremony. Thanks to the 'lobby' of Catholic bride to 3 Pastor who give blessing, the Non-Catholics allowed to participate, but not to make leadership in wedding bless. Then there were 'unique' wedding bless in which the Word of God is read by the Non-Catholics along with candle-wax. Consequently procession lasted for 2.5 hours.

At the wedding reception I try to get opinions from someone who is still family member of the Catholic bride, but he is Christian Non-Catholic. I say that the Catholic Church was quite tolerant of Different Religion Mix Married, but he said that should be the Word of God should be followed.
As a far I know the Catholic Church more support Same Catholic Married, but in fact to get same friend living faith is not easy going, so the Catholic Church come to be realistic: Marriage right is one of Human Rights, so Catholic Church provide exemption for Mix Married (Different Church and/or Different Religion). Is never mentioned Different Race/Ethnic/Tribe.

Before I also attended a friend's wedding bless who his father is Ambonese and his mother is Chinese which marry a Chinese maiden who is also the daughter of Young Priest of the Church. This same faith married is not get any obstacle/retention of Different Ethnic/Tribe from the two sides of the family.

Seems Different Religion Mix Married with Same Race/Ethnic/Tribe have more obstacles/retentions than Same Religion Mix Married with Different Race/Ethnic/Tribe.
Are you agree if someone said The Religion and who Religious Fanatics disturb flowing of Mix Married toward Truly Mixing? Please your comments to: gsarwa@indosat.net.id

PEMBAURAN/ASSIMILATION Mix Married Mixing

Assimilation is debatable, but truly so many nuance and gradation in Assimilation. Extremly might be divided as:
Salad Bowl: As 'gado-gado' (traditional mix vegetables Indonesian cuisine), so the components still clearly examined such as peanut, cabbage, etc. For example: United States of America which has every own State Law.
Melting Pot: It is advance of Salad Bowl which as due to Mix Marriage from many ethnic or races, so individual cannot claim that he/she belongs to certain ethnic. It is embryo of Nation State.

It is my intro, please welcome your comments or directly pass your email to: gsarwa@indosat.net.id

Pembauran banyak dikatakan atau diwacanakan, tetapi sebenarnya banyak gradasi atau nuansa dalam Pembauran.
Secara ekstrim dapat dibagi menjadi:
Salad Bowl: Seperti halnya gado-gado, maka komponen penyusunnya masih tampak -ada kacang, ada kol, ada timun, dsbnya. Contohnya: Amerika Serikat seperti juga tercermin dalam kata United States dimana masing-masing State punya hukum sendiri.
Melting Pot: Ini adalah tingkat lanjut dari Salad Bowl dimana dengan adanya kawin campur dari banyak suku atau etnis, maka seseorang tak dapat mengklaim bahwa ia murni dari suku atau etnis tertentu. Ini adalah cikal bakal dari Negara Bangsa.

Sekian intro saya, silakan menanggapi atau boleh juga kirim email ke: gsarwa@indosat.net.id
