…stumbled across this article on a website that belongs to The Restored Church of God. Interesting and disheartening article… specially for a family man (to be) like me. You might think it’s boring but well, it’s always better to be aware than being ignorant.
Some of the more attention-drawing lines:
The fear of violating what were once deeply ingrained, biblically-based, moral beliefs has almost disappeared. The divorce rate today is actually slightly higher among professing “born-again” Christians than those professing to have no faith.
After such a long, slow erosion of respect toward the legal aspect of marriage, no wonder a judge recently proclaimed, “It is easier to divorce my wife of 26 years than to fire someone I hired one week ago. The person I hire has more legal clout…That’s wrong!”
What an incredible commentary about this age!
The concept of family has become so foreign that only 16% (only one in six) of adults say children are even important as a reason for marriage. Stunning!
Marriage is supposed to protect the dignity of children, once considered a wonderful blessing given to the parents by God. Today they are often viewed as accidents of biology that intruded on their parents’ self-interests, and pursuit of career and pleasure!

But be warned that it is very looong…
Update: Pls keep in mind that this article refers to American statistics.
