In this context, " forcing belief " isn't about someone forcing belief

on others. It's about forcing oneself to believe. Christians can

evangelize and witness to me until they're blue in the face, but

there is no way I can force myself to believe what they say when

their words simply do not resonate as truth.

Ya' know what you are saying could work both ways, maybe you have

forced yourself to believe that it's not true. ºÜº
