The Bible does not tell us we should forcefully prevent other people from doing evil if that's what they want to do.

And it doesn't tell us that we shouldn't. Remember the woman caught in adultery? Did Jesus say that the law was unjust? Or that the State had no authority to permit stoning?

"The Bible does not tell us we should forcefully prevent other people from doing evil if that's what they want to do."

Excuse me? To which bible do you refer? Not the one I was introduced to 50 years ago, that's for sure.
