Fifty percent is the number everyone quotes. Basically 50% of all marriages end in divorce.\n\nThis figure is misleading because it does not really have a separate accounting for people who get married more than once.\n\nFor example - say you have three people. Two get married and stay married. The third gets married twice and divorces each time.\n\nThe result is that 50 percent of the marriages in that situation ended in divorce - even though only 33% of the people in that situation actually went through a divorce.\n\nThe REAL question that most people have in mind when they ask this is 'what percentages of first time marriages end in divorce.' I think that number is around 25-30%.\n\nSo its not that bad.

Well, look around you.  Nothing would be much different.\n\nThe number of single parent homes that exist now have nothing to do with the wedding or the divorce.  It all has to do with the people and how they react to each other in conflict and in calm times.\n\nStaying together becuase of the children wouldnt change at all, married or living together.\n\nI suppose lawyers would have less to do, or have to go into another avenue of Law.\n\nBut, we are not better off without marriage, not sure about the actual wedding ceremony, aside from the money so many people make off of it.\n\nMarriage, is a commitment to each other, not a piece of paper.  The paper is man made and just shows the legal contract entered into.  A true marriage vow is forever and is made with GOD as your true witness..  When the marriage vow is done with this as its true goal, you will be better off even in really hard times ( those times when you love your spouse for better and for worse, and it seems like its the worse part all the time)\n\nI know there are people on here that will quote that the Christian divorce rate is almost equal to the non Christain divorce rate, but no one has taken into account what I would call the true Christain divorce rate.  That would be of Christains that actually attend Church and read their bible regularly, not just on holidays or on sundays when there is no conflict with other things they may want to do.\nThat is a statistic that I would prefer to see.

I don't know the exact percentage, but a percentage I use is the old 60-40.\n\n60% of the people in the United States are women\n40% of the people in the United States are men\n\nI use the same calculation for the world too, because men die off sooner then women for many reason.  Some of the reasons are, women have the good cholesterol and men have the bad.  More men die in wars than women.  More men goes to prison than women, which sometimes results to death.  More men ends up walking through dangerous areas of a city than women, which ends up in death.   Women usually tries to avoid dangerous places and if they have to go through the dangerous areas of a city, they end up with a group of women.  A lot more men are alone and has no friends.  Most women has friends, so they can help protect each other.  Since men has fewer or no friends, suicides deaths and just plain deaths are higher.\n\nJust remember, there isn't a higher chance of having a female baby than having a male baby.   You have the same chance 50-50.  Most people don't believe this, they believe that they're a higher chance of having a female baby than male, but not true.  Just more males end up not living as long for the reason I listed above and many more reasons.

Yes. The ARIS study of 2001 shows that the percentage of Christians in the U.S. has dropped approximately .9% every year since 1991. At that rate, the current percentage of U.S. should be about 73% of the population.

Probably between 6-8 percent, just like the general population. I don't know where you got the 1% from, but it's wrong.

Yes and no based on why those events took place. Marriage appears to be the way of life in the society so most of us are getting married. That is the divine way to continue the  life cycle. Divorce is a result of modern civilization. If purpose of life is to have peaceful life and then for some divorce may be a solution.

Divorce rate in Australia in around 40%. Meaning, about 40 percent of marriages can be expected to end in divorce. Adding a small fraction for marriage breakdowns which are never formalised by divorce,it is estimated that about 43 per cent of marriages end in separation within 30 years of the marriage. \nDivorce rate in Australia stands at around 3 divorces per 1000 marriages. Census records show that more than 55,000 divorces were granted in 2001. During the same period around 103,000 marriages were registered. \n\n\n\nPeople divorce for many reasons but i do believe that a huge contribution to divorce is financial strain on marriages, trying to pay your mortgage and raise kids on minimum wages... it takes its toll.

They should be.  Plus a zillion more.  We are so caught up in the romance of marriage, we forget that it is s-e-r-i-o-u-s.  We don't want to talk about these things.\nAnd we can always get a divorce, right?  Even when both parties agree it isn't working out it still causes immeasurably emotional damage.\n\nHere are a few from my arsenal:\nWhat will you do when you find you cannot agree?\n\nWho will be responsibile for paying the bills and keeping the checkbook?\n\nWhat is your attitude toward children?\nWhat would you do if you cannot conceive children of your own?\n\nHow often do you want to invite people to your home?\n\nWhere will you spend Christmas, Thanksgiving and Easter? How will you decide?
