50% of all marriages end in divorce. The figure for first marriages isn’t that high. Gotta learn to decipher those stats
It’s a crude order of magnitude stab at the figure on my part, and it obviously differs by social group. What really floored me was to learn that people calling themselves Christians were not much better at keeping lasting marriages than other people. “Christian” has been dumbed down to mean something like “nice-ish people who sometimes visit a church.”
