Comments on: 1/2 of All Marriages Don't Fail! Do the math! http://keithsouza.com/statistics/12-of-all-marriages-dont-fail-do-the-math/ Keith Souza writes here.

While I haven't done any formal research, I would think that those people that have been married more than once would raise the percentage in itself. Not to mention the "serial divorcers" who would raise the percentage even higher. Maybe there should be a distinction in the CDC stats about the percentage that someone is likely to experience a divorce. Also, with this in mind, the birth and death rate compared to the marraige and divorce rate wouldn't apply because once your dead you cannot be born again. Hey wait! Your trying to coax me into a meaningful discussion!! How dare you rip me away from my handing out imaginary drinks and updating my staus on Facebook.
