Nearly all abortions occur in the FIRST trimester.

This is why the anti-choice freaks obsess over late-term "partial birth" abortions despite them being extremely rare, it's effective and emotionally manipulative propaganda.

But are medically necessary, often tragically for pregnancies that were wanted. They are not done on a whim (as if ANY abortion is), they are expensive and a serious medical procedure. Denying women those procedures can be a death sentence for the woman.

Those are all things the anti-choice fanatics ignore.

Here is the text ...

14 I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
your works are wonderful,
I know that full well.
15 My frame was not hidden from you
when I was made in the secret place,
when I was woven together in the depths of the earth.
16 Your eyes saw my unformed body;
all the days ordained for me were written in your book
before one of them came to be.

The key section is Psalms 139:15 ... in which it says that "I was woven together in the depths of the earth".

"The Depths of the Earth" ... hummmm ... sounds like EVOLUTION to me.
