I don’t think it’s about standing by conviction though, you can believe that something is the right thing whilst also believing that it’s wrong to force others to think the same/to comply with your idea of right. There’s no inherent contradiction there. I can think of many, MANY things that I personally would never choose to do that I don’t think should be made illegal for others to do.
