Try this. Word search on google "divorce rate"+"Protestant clergy".

See what you find. I found several studies that showed it was at least as high as the nationwide divorce rate.

Do your own homework and research. I am not your mother. And it doesn't matter what the studies show, as it will not change your mind anyway.

Also, if supposedly 30 percent of all priest break their vows of celibacy, then that means 70 percent keep them, which is a greater percentage than Catholic marriages remaining in tact.

You make a statement about divorced Protestant ministers and can't back it up?

You have the burden of proof when you make a statement. At least, that was the rule when I was debating in high school.
