What about the Islam Defenders Front (FPI)...?

It seems the biggest problem is that they don't choose just one religion to follow.
From what I have read, they don't use religion as their guide.
Get off this religious high horse and accept the fact the people can get along in mixed company.

In another article the Indonesian Ulema Council (MUI) declared that not praying is blasphemous. We get it, corruption is halal and for not praying you deserve jail.
The MUI is becoming more and more like the FPI.

A banned organization is holding meetings and the police know about it. Hmmm, how much were they paid to look the other way?
At least they haven't started destroying churches or harassing people yet, like government favorite radical group the FPI.
If this group took a more radical approach like the FPI, the police and government would surely support it.
