No they should not have a right to coerce someone into attending a religious service.
If anything the government needs to ban the teaching of religion to young children. Their minds are highly impressionable and filling it with religion is only leading to the spread of what has become humanity greatest hindrance ( religion).
I have to disagree, I have attented church sense I was a baby, and am now studing to go into the ministry myself. Realigion is not a hinderance to man, but a guideline for which to live. The morals as humans we belive in are from the bible, and this can not be disproven. Thou shall not commit murder, thou shall not commit adultry, respect thy father and mother, ect. These are the core belifes of this and many other countries. Imagine if you will a world with no realigion ever being taught, were the idea do what feels good is taught. Under this morale idea, if I wanted to kill someone, I could because it felt good. No realigion has it place in our society, even the founding fathers said this. Look at many of the ideas expressed in the constition, they are freedomes the bible says we have. We have freedom to do what we want, because God gave that to us, its called free will and was his design. You can be a man of good morale chacter and enver attened church, but did your parents, or grandparents. The way you are rasied and what you are taught belive it or not, is realigion based. I do not say all must follow what I belive, but you must also understand that in the western part of the world at least Christianty is the reson our laws are written they way they are, and why the morals are diffrent than they are in other nations.
You have a very limited view of reality if you think that morality exists only within religious context. You are further extremely confused if you equate culture/sociology with religion.
Furthermore you are 100% wrong about our laws, as has been proven a nearly infinite number of times pretty much everywhere in the world.
In fact, honest to God, you pretty much have made just about the most ignorant statements I've ever read in a single paragraph.
It's completely obvious you know absolutely nothing about history, law, sociology, psychology, cultures, etc. To be honest, at this point I'd have to question if you even know anything about religion, since you're dead wrong on everything else you talk about.
Seriously, you need to get some education.
