What do you believe in?

What i don't get here is what the existence of a "creator" would have to do with abortion. Just as an example, what if there is a god. What does that tell us about everyday life, or about abortion?
It would be very well conceivable to me that there is a god, but they have no opinion about whether we do abortions or not. How are these things connected?
In the case of being anti-abortion, we’re talking about people who believe in the biblical God - and they often point to chapters in the Bible to justify their stance. In most cases, it boils down to the belief that life begins at the moment of conception and that all life is sacred. There are also passages in the Bible that speak about God having plans for unborn children.

These are some more lighthearted things, but here goes:
• Sonic the Hedgehog ( Sonic '06 ) wouldn't be as fun of a game if all the bugs and glitches were gone. I live for a good glitch or six sometimes. Same without the highly difficult and janky super speed sections.
• Sonic Unleashed is an amazing game ( but the xbox/ps3 versions are the superior versions, as someone who has beat it on ps2 and xbox360 ).
• Due to the janky turn left/right movements on Sonic Lost World and just general movement jank, I am absolutely glad they have the run button to occasionally slow me down and stop me from dying.
• Also an extreme believer that the special stages ( on the 3DS version of Lost World ) are absolute cancer.
• Wallace and Gromit: Vengeance Most Fowl was nowhere near as good as The Wrong Trousers. I absolutely hated how they made Wallace absolutely incompetent and idiotic when it comes to normal things ( like how to use a non-electric tea pot ) when he didn't have any technology.
• Xbox style controllers with BAXY ( right, down, left, up ) button layout are the way to go. The only exception to that belief right now is my 3rd party wired switch controller because it has a headphone jack.

do you believe that randomness exists?
The universe and everything in it was made for a reason.
I wonder how randomness would fit into this. I believe that randomness does exist and that order/causality has its limits.
Randomness? Or uncertainty? Cause I understand uncertainty (both epistemologically and physically, and more so the former than the latter), but it's hard for me to understand randomness when everything comes from something that came before, forming a line of causes and effects (knowable and unknowable) from the beginning of the universe until today. Perhaps through quantum physics, idk, but I don't think I need to understand it as long as I only take into consideration what happens after the collapse of the wave function, lol. I also understand that consciousness is a black box, and free will is evidently real (go diet or be faithful in your teenage yours, you'll quickly discover your freedom as you're fighting yourself) but is axiomatic and cannot be properly explained in words (it's part of the terrain that cannot be represented in the map).

I'm nitpicky about the word "believe". So let me rephrase: I do not believe. Either I know, or I don't know. Everything else are more or less informed speculations, assumptions or hypotheses at best.

how do you know you know?
Cogito ergo sum.
Accepting a common framework of provable, i.e., measurable, repeatable, falsifiable phenomena, as a concept of "reality," seems to be a pragmatic approach, given my sensory inputs and the processing results of my brain. This is then "knowledge."
But ultimately, this is subordinated to the possibility of an illusion – be it like in The Matrix, or as a Boltzmann brain, or whatever. Unless there is evidence for that, it appears most practical to me to go with the above, as I don't gain anything from racking my brain about such possible illusions of reality (even though it's fun thinking about it).

I have read the following very beautiful explanation of randomness:
You may very well assume that the universe is deterministic, i.e. one thing follows after another, but even if that is so, you still end up with infinitely many stars in the night sky, and you cannot predict their patterns and shapes from mere computational-prediction alone. You need to venture out into the night and see the stars for yourself in order to find their arrangement and yourself in the middle of it. That is what randomness is all about: The stars could have any pattern, but they have exactly one. The same applies for humans: Humans could have any character, but they have exactly one. The true human character causes free-will, and that is what you and me experience as the wonder of life.

If humans are inherently evil, why is evil not the dominant force in the world? One would assume that if everyone were indeed evil, greedy, and out for themselves our existence could only be anarchy.

You know things but do not accept them to be true or real?
