Even a rate of 43% of marriages ...Thanks Lindsay, <br /><br />Even a rate of 43% of marriages ending in divorce is still too high. <br /><br />I note that Ireland with its residual Catholic population has a rate of just 13%, albeit Spain that is also nominally Catholic has a divorce rate of 61%. Maybe they have a different theology in Spain, or more likely differing cultural expectations.<br />Brendan McNeillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02741263914308842497noreply@blogger.com
