muffled socio-political expressions. They attend to blow acts of violance up in
the name of religion. In this context, media remark some religious groups by
using horrible terms and idioms, such as zealots, extremists, militants, etc.
Moreover, they swipe it with taking some appaling photos and pictures.
Religious leaders perceive this phenomenon as kind of misunderstanding paradigm

beautiful expressions of religion, like Mahatma Gandhi, Martin Luther King,
Mother Theresa, Malcolm X, dan Dalai Lama. This paper attempts to explore how
