When those morals and beliefs and customs are harmful to others, absolutely!!
For instance, we interfered with Jehovah's Witness beliefs, by making it illegal for them to refuse to allow their children to recieve blood in a medical emergency. And rightly so.
If someone's morals, beliefs, or customs require them to severely beat their children, you bet we need to interfere.
If they are repressive to any group, such as women, yes, we need to interfere!!
Need I continue??

If they are dangerous to others, yes. Otherwise people should be entitled to personal beliefs and morals.

no we should accept and respect that other individuals and societies have different morals.
Relativism - whats considered the norm in one society, may be considered deviant in another.

In a day where people can obtain the knowledge and resources to build a nuclear bomb and still believe he will get 72 virgins in paradise...
I would say it is imperative!

No, we should respect others beliefs as long as they do no harm to others

It depends on who "we" are and what you mean by "interfere."
All answers I might provide are contingent upon knowing how you are defining these words in the context of this question.

It depends on whether they are trying to push their views onto others. If they are? chase them! Get shut! Export them to the middle of the Sahara desert.

It seems to be the goal of most "true" believers

Not if they don't affect others, but mostly they do.
