“Half of Americans have been divorced”
Why do Trumpettes make up statistics?
Maybe they just report the facts per the American Psychological Association?
“Marriage and divorce are both common experiences. In Western cultures, more than 90 percent of people marry by age 50. Healthy marriages are good for couples’ mental and physical health. They are also good for children; growing up in a happy home protects children from mental, physical, educational and social problems. However, about 40 to 50 percent of married couples in the United States divorce. The divorce rate for subsequent marriages is even higher.”
Why ………………. make up statistics?
It is amazing how this urban myth just keeps going round and round. It's mostly perpetuated in churches by preachers intent on making people know how utterly sinful they are. Not that we aren't sinful, I have lustful (but brief) thoughts every day (thank God He is very very good at helping me keep my hands to myself!!).
Divorce rate is around 50%
Google it
What makes that less relevant is:
70-80% of blacks don’t marry
55% of Latinos
25% or less of whites and orientals
