Theory- once we've got it we can play around in it. Whether we ascribe to a theory or not, the freedom is there. It's like swimming in a pool. You can have your own, or a favorite, but still borrow someone else's for that experience.
Religion (or God beliefs, really) functions the same way. Once I truly get the love and grace of God, religion isn't restrictive, it's freeing. And it isn't rigid, but flexible. Thus, while I am attached to my beliefs, I am not defensive of them. People can criticize without it bothering me. Fundamentalists, both religious and theoretical, don't get this.
