There are many who would try to force their beliefs on others, but those are the people who have twisted their religions. That's why I personally have shunned organized relgion but still believe in the truths and morals I have learned from it. We are free to say, "This is what I believe," and ,"I don't believe what you belive," and then go on our way. When people begin to use force on others they forfeit their own freedom, and we still have freedom of thought even when it's not safe to express those thoughts.
