thinking and doing that runs through activities of people and
distinguished them from all other peoples"
According to Kuntjaraningrat, culture is "The whole system of ideas,
actions and results of human work in the framework of the life of the
people that are used as human property by learning."
  so "Culture as" every development of human beings that results in
improvement, enlightenment, and discipline obtained through mental
and moral training, civilization and an increase in matters of manners

Between Religion and Culture

• Culture is known for its results or elements. Cultural elements continue to grow along with the
development of life and life. Humans develop culture; culture develops because of humans. Humans
are called cultured beings, if they are able to live in or according to their culture. Some cultured beings,
not only mean to defend the cultural values ​of the past or the heritage of their ancestors; but includes
developing (results) culture. In addition to the great framework of culture, humans in their communities,
in their interactions, have norms, values, and habits passed down through generations called traditions.
Traditions are usually maintained as they are; but sometimes it undergoes a slight modification due to
outside influences into the community that carries out the tradition. For example the influence of
religions into certain cultural communities (and traditions); many cultural elements (eg poetry, language,
singing, dancing, painting and carving) are filled with religious formulas so as to produce a syncretic
blend between religion and culture. Culture and culture, according to their understanding, never
change; who experience change and development are the results or elements of culture. However,
there is a tendency in society to understand that results and cultural elements can have an impact on
cultural change. The difference between religion and culture produces a relationship between faith-
religion and culture. Thus giving rise to relations (not a mutually complementary and constructive
relationship) between religion and culture.
Relationship between Religion and Culture

• Actually there is no single culture entirely based on religion. For some cultures
also continue to be challenged by science, secular morality, and critical
thinking. Although it cannot be equated, religion and culture can influence
each other. Religion influences belief systems and life practices. On the
contrary, culture can also influence religion, especially in terms of how religion
is interpreted / how its rituals should be practiced. There is no religion that is
free of culture and what is called the God, in Indonesian society it affects each
other deeply between religion and culture. The practice of inculturation in
religious ceremonies is almost common in all religions
