Why? Few laypeople in any religion know why they believe what they believe.

I don't actually disagree with you; the actions of the masses create a theology, and the theologians come along behind them to tidy it up. But on the other hand, within established religions, the latitude for mass influence is drastically reduced, particularly once people begin believing for no better reason than "tradition". In these cases the theologian counts for far more.
