Central to Christian belief is that man has a free choice. Therefore, they cannot FORCE you to believe in Easter, because that would be denying you a free choice.

However, you will eventually be called upon to answer for the life choices you have made, before the Almighty. Christians should urge you to believe in the Easter story, because it is at that point where Jesus achieves the goal of allowing us to be reconciled with Almighty God.
