Steve, I love that quote from Buddha, I remember reading the story online one day, and some man starts hurling insults at the Buddha and he just stands there, saying and doing nothing and eventually the man who was hurling all of these insults gets frustrated and leaves, infuriated. And the Buddha says, "If someone offers you a gift, and you decline to accept it, to whom does the gift belong?" It's very true. If someone is trying to force their beliefs on you, and you don't accept them a true, they don't belong to you.
