Since you're going against the facts presented in the article, would you mind citing your sources? It will help readers evaluate your claims more effectively by allowing them to account for biases.
- coldtea 12y ago>would you mind citing your sources? The article doesn't claim any sources for the "overestimation" either -- or attempts to give any more accurate number. It's mostly a rehash of the linked NYT article that actually points out rates around 38-45% (so pretty damn close to 50%).
- spydum 12y agoThe article never actually provided fact or studies showing it is NOT 50%, they just ridiculed the national marriage project. All they showed was that less people per population were getting divorced. This does not answer the question about the divorce rate or where more or less people were getting married.
- intopieces 12y agoNot quite. The article says there is insufficient data. The commenter says there is (by virtue of making the claim). If I am to be convinced the opposite of the article's claim, I need to see the data the article claims doesn't exist.
