That's somewhat reasonable. No one should be forced to believe in God or follow a religion. However, saying that the only reason people follow a religion is to keep themselves in check is incorrect. I, for one, know I am perfectly sane but I still am a Christian. People choose to follow to follow a religion for different reasons not necessarily to be kept in check.
