...the Bible belt has a bigger divorce rate than New England?

Before you can conclude anything based on that statement, you have to wonder how many New England couples just didn't bother to marry at all, but instead chose the easy way...shacking up?

Hey- I don't know about that- but shacking up seems to be quite accepted in the South- common law marriages are not common around here. I wonder what the stats are for out of wedlock births- New England vs the South? Wanna make a bet?
