Where did I say that mine were correct? I just said his were mythical and posted two sources contradicting HIS numbers. I wasn't trying to prove any divorce rate, I was just trying to prove him wrong.
Except you didn't contradict his sources, and you did two things bad for yourself:
• One of your sources basically supported his source (50 and 55 are close in percentage), and
• You proved sources can vary, so that his 55% could actually be a legitimate estimation from some other source, so you failed to prove him wrong.
Here's a source that says first-rate marriage divorce rate is 55%:
http://curezone.com/forums/fm.asp?i=667688The divorce rate for first time marriages is 55%, the divorce rate for 2nd marriages is 75%.
Those rates clearly show people cannot stand one another and will not tolerate nonsense from anyone, be it husband or wife.
