Need Help on my Essay Homework

[HellOnEarth]

What is the divorce rate among white caucasians, black, hispanic, and asians?

How many of those who divorce are white?

I heard that the divorce rate in a single year is 51 percent--is this true?

I did not just type those questions to get information on homework, but to have an on going discussion on why the divorce rates are increasing...

Is it because our democrative way of life? What is we turned back to the phatoriecal views, would things be better?

I only get Christian sites dealing with divorce, not statistics.

The Divorce rates in this country are kinda flawed. They get that number (51%) by making a ratio between marriages of a given year/divorces of a given year. However the rate is wrong since it fails to acknowledge any ongoing marriages from the prior years.

It is currently around .40%.

Some people say for "my generation" we have a 50% chance of divorce...however most people actually say this number is far less than reported.
