Not “all.” Most Western religions, especially the three Abrahamic cults (Judaism, Christianity, and Islam) are totally committed to this “my way or no way” form of religious totalitarianism, as you suggest. But this is not true of the Dharmic religions (Hindu, Buddhist, Sikh, etc.) nor of the great diversity of indigenous religions scattered throughout the world.
