but cannot pay for one, and he stated that murdering an unborn child is not as serious as murdering a child that is already alive.

Did he really say "already alive", as if an unborn child is not???

Here is the quote:

“See, I don’t equate abortion with murdering a child, which I guess puts me in conflict with the teaching of the Catholic church...If you agree with the church, there’s no difference between murdering a one-year-old and eliminating a fetus – it’s the same act. There is a moral consequence to the elimination of a fetus, but it’s not the same thing as murder.”
