By “those things,” you’re referring to God or the entity running the simulation? Whether it’s a reasonable belief isn’t really relevant from the perspective of the theory itself.

Belief in a God or a creator is a foundational belief - being against abortion isn’t. That view only logically follows from the prior belief.
Whether they should or shouldn’t hold those beliefs is not an objective fact but a value judgment on your part - and either way, it’s entirely unrelated to what I was saying.

Someone can have a fundamental belief that they shouldn’t have.
Someone can also have a derivative belief from another derivative belief, without the prior belief having to be fundamental.
