Well, can anybody accept a religion if it is forced on you. Humans cannot be forced to accept a religion by force. Do you think christians are forced to follow christian faith, likewise jews, buddhists, Islam etc., Humans can accept or embrace religion only if they find the religion or religious faith to be problem solving, finding happiness, etc., I do beleive that nobody can accept any religion by force. Similarly, If religious extremists (as called by politicians) are forcing religion on others by fear, i don't think anybody would accept it. people will embrace a religion only by its merits. So, i think it is a propoganda by politicians to instill fear among people about extremisms in religions to garner support from their people to keep their country high on top of the world by suppressing others freedom.

Good points and there are some who will accept a religion by force. The Spanish Inquisition proved that. Now in the year 2007 only one religion is guilty of aggressively trying to convert others and it is not the Roman Catholic church this time.

Those whom ignore the past are condemned to repeat its mistakes....Ever hear of the Spanish Inquisition? The entire country at the time converted..or at least paid lip service to it....if you didn't you were tortured and killed...sound familiar...look at the middle east today. Either you are a Muzzie scum or you are tortured or killed...if you convert FROM Islam...you are sentenced to death....We whom look at and remember history...KNOW this can happen...so run and hide under the bed and repeat your montra...everything is perfect...there is no such thing as evil...and everybody but libbies are wrong......and if you believe that I have ocean front property in Nevada for sale in the desert.

Most religions use the "fear" tactic on people. I do not care which religion. They all do it.

Many people "believe" out of fear not too, It's the old "burn in Hell" routine that many find believable.....
