Maybe religious institutions are like that, but individual religious Western individuals can very much want you to truly believe it. For instance my father doesn't force me to act religious, because he knows it won't change what I believe.

Sorry, I meant religious institutions/believers that want to force people to believe. I thought that was implied, but it's my fault for not bring clearer.

I wasn't disagreeing with you, sorry for sounding like I was.
