I believe if you were asking if I could give up eating Fruit Loops cereal for eating Raisin Bran then those are two good things and God will not have a problem with it. No, I believe ultimatums are going the extra mile which love compels.
Love is more "I give you fruit loops or raisin bran. Choose either one (no fine print). I love you regardless your choice."
Ultimatums between good and bad is set up for coercion. Why would one want to be coerced to believe in god and then indoctrinated into that belief to where if he or she questioned it, his dissonance would harm him just as much as if he would have said no to begin with.
