In August, a three-judge panel of the 9th circuit blocked the law, just hours before it was set to take effect. On May 21, the 9th circuit ruled that Arizona&#8217;s ban on abortions after 20 weeks violated key provisions <a class="entry-excerpt-link" href="http://akseac.wordpress.com/2013/05/22/court-strikes-down-arizona-law-banning-late-term-abortions/">More&#8230;</a><img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=akseac.wordpress.com&#038;blog=19498346&#038;post=2912&#038;subd=akseac&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

A 2012 Pew Research Center survey finds that this large and growing group (32 percent of &#8220;under 30s&#8221;) mostly believes in God (68 percent) and often feels a deep connection with the earth and nature (58 percent).
