Abstract
The adherents of belief still facing discriminations about the implementation of belief education in the higher curriculum because the Higher Education Law still only recognizes religious education as a compulsory curriculum. This has resulted in discrimination for students who are adherents of belief so that they do not obtain religious education as they should be as a form of freedom of belief in God Almighty which is protected by the constitution as that of the adherents of religion. This research using juridical normative method by doing an abstraction of the process of deduction from the prevailing positive legal norms about constitutions and human rights law. This research aims to breaking the chain of discriminations against believers with giving new perspectives for recognizing belief education into compulsory curriculum in higher education law in Indonesia. Therefore, it is fundamental to immediately recognize education of belief in God Almighty and include it in the higher education curriculum as a form of respect for human rights and citizen rights of the adherents of belief in Indonesia.
