People who believe whatever they want to believe can work that out on their own or with like minded folk.
BUT when you think it's funny to do stuff that incites violence, like walk into someplace and shoot it up because you don't think the election was run fairly, that belief impacts someone else and you gotta step it back or go to jail and pay the price.
Or when you tell lots of people that wearing masks violates their personal freedom so a pandemic can kill millions of people.
OH you meant the "God" stuff.
