Good news. Another “fact” that has been fed as propaganda. I am finding more of them.
Why are they showing Right hands when the wedding rings go on the LEFT hand.
I remember dating an Argentinian girl who, once we’d been out a few times shared why she got divorced having 3 kids. I figured it was a painful experience for her. Turned out it was because “she was bored.” I’m thinking she didn’t really want to discuss it in detail but she was so convincing, I really was shaken by it. I never saw much of her after that, I just didn’t want to be around that type of thought.
I would bet that homosexual “marriage” has a 90% divorce rate. The state run media will never disclose this though.
One of the more interesting statements in this article: ““[T]he 50 percent figure came from projections of what researchers thought...”
In other words, a wild guess that turned out to be false. I suspect that this guess work is also prevalent in demographic studies.
Looks like a German couple (rings on the right hand...)
He is now to be among you at the calling of your hearts
Rest assured this troubador is acting on His part.
The union of your spirits, here, has caused Him to remain
For whenever two or more of you are gathered in His name
There is love, there is love.
Seems a tad stronger of a foundation for a flourishing healthy relationship than...
it’s sort of difficult to quantify this as an individual. because when we do learn of people who have been in church for years getting divorced, it is very surprising and painful. so it takes on more prominence than it ought. but even then, it is nowhere near 50%.
in my own church experience, I am very familiar with a lot of second marriages as well.
at the end of the day, the 25% figure sounds about right I guess....just doing my own “statistics”.

The author hints at the root of these lies when he mentions “post-modernism.” That school believes there are no absolutes, and that anything can be defined by its immediate social and cultural context. It goes hand in glove with the marxist notion that truth is a negotiable commodity.
Similar lies are being told every day about global warming, homosexuality, sexual behavior in general, fiscal policy, islam, the nation’s history, and our national security. It is really very simple: they’re lies. Nothing more than outright lies.

I’ve always thought this was a ridiculous assertion.It’s disturbing to see how many pastors and teachers are so eager to paint a bleak picture of Christians.
I don’t know why they don’t just title their sermons “Jesus Doesn’t Make a Difference,” or “The Ineffectiveness of Faith in Christ.” I cringe every time I hear this kind of trash-talk from the pulpit, and there is a LOT of it going on.
Good, now we’ve got an answer to gays who sneer, “You Christians need to get your own act together before telling us gays we can’t marry.”
