High Divorce Rate in the United States

I don't think the USA is any more religious than other countries.
Yeah, well you’re wrong.

That the USA is more religious than other developed countries is a matter of common knowledge

No, you are wrong. I have visited other countries and many are more religious than the USA. You should travel to other lands and not get your information from the MSM.

Other developed countries?

Or places like Mexico or Africa?

I doubt very much you went to Australia or France and found them to be more religious than the USA

Every country I mentioned in that post is significantly less religious than the USA

I visited many developed countries. You need to get out of your sheltered existence and actually go to those countries instead of rely on hearsay.

What are you basing this knowledge on?

You went to Paris and saw a church?

Statistically, the USA is much more religious than other western, developed nations.

Some things are simply facts, not opinions

You have a closed mind and should actually experience visiting other countries instead of relying on inaccurate information. Many of your posts contain half truths because of your personal prejudices.
 
Divorce is an option for a bad marriage. There needs to be a way to get out.
 
I have never been married !!
I am guessing it would be one of the failed ones with my schmendrick lifestyle
 
Marriage should be about a.shared belief in G-d.and the vows to.one another. This is why I am not a big fan of the automatic common-law after.living together.two years which we have in Ontario, hough I understand it.
This brings up the issue of civil vs. religious marriage. The former is a public contract which offers specific rights and privileges in return for assuming certain financial and parental obligations. It used to provide for a stable society in which to raise children. During the last two generations, the availability of casual sex without consequences has greatly undermined this objective. Religious marriage used to be a solemn pledge to obey the teachings of the church in which it was consecrated. Modernly, it has often become little more than a backdrop for an elaborate photo shoot..

The divorce rate in the USA is much higher than the divorce rate worldwide. I wonder why a country with such a strong economy like ours should have so many divorces.

Well, the US is nose bleeding high on gun deaths, knife deaths, and number of serial killers, they ain't gonna let divorce off the hook.

I listened to a woman talk about her divorce a couple days ago. Said she was divorcing her husband for no particular reason, just that, like her Father told her……..

First time, marry a rich guy, stay married just long enough to get alimony, divorce and then Marry again for love.

It’s what men today have to look forward to.

I'm engaged to a gorgeous and successful woman. We both have great careers and plan on a wedding next year. I have known her long enough to know she loves me for who I am and not for how much I'm worth financially.

I hope it works out for you!

My wife and I have been married 38 years. 3 kids (a hers/mine/ours) situation. We never even talked money, always joint accounts, all kids treated as though each one of them came from our marriage.

So many keep their finances separate and they always fight about money. We went through some really tough financial times, but never, not once, pressured the other one to make more although for several years I worked a full time and one or two part time jobs so she could maximize her time with the kids.

Best advise I can give ya, DON’T TAKE THE BAD TIMES TOO SERIOUSLY! Like my Dad always said, this too will pass.
