24. I don't find it contradictory.
First, he doesn't say abortion is murder. You're putting words in his mouth.

Secondly, he clearly says it's his BELIEF. He recognizes that his BELIEF is different from fact.

He doesn't BELIEVE he has the RIGHT to FORCE you to BELIEVE what he BELIEVES and govern yourself according to his BELIEF.

I believe God wants me to give up liquor during Lent. That doesn't mean I advocate prohibition during Lent. I recognize that other don't agree with my belief.

Many people BELIEVE life begins at BIRTH. Others BELIEVE it begins at VIABILITY. Their beliefs are every bit as valid as the person who BELIEVES it begins when "sperm meets egg".
