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.
Yeah - the OCD in me kicked in the moment I saw that: somebody flipped the photo?
I was shattered...
Looks like a German couple (rings on the right hand...)
Maybe they are Europeans’ hands.
It’s probably a picture from some European couple. For example in Germany the wedding ring is worn on the right hand. During the engagement period the ring is worn on the left hand and is then switched over to the right hand during the wedding ceremony.
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...
I had NO idea of that.....I’ll have to pay more attention.
Because the author couldn’t find any ACTUALLY married people to take a photo for this article?! /s
LOL good catch!
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”.
You noticed the bride wears a wedding band and a diamond ring. I was born and raised in Germany and when I grew up the bride wore the same band that she got from the groom when they got engaged.
So maybe it's something new. I haven't been back to Germany since 1979 when my husband was transferred back to the States and he retired from the Army after 21 years, 11 month and 7 days of service. Plus two tours in Vietnam for which he both volunteered. BTW we married in Germany
19 years tomorrow, been together for 21.
Bump
Hmmm ... sort of like the whole anthropomorphic global warming scam without the $ motivations to keep it going.
