18. Fundies are usually in the south. Southerners tend to marry younger.

Younger marriages tend to fail more frequently due to financial problems and immaturity. Also, more marriages in the north tend to be Catholic marriages, where getting divorced creates more problems in practicing the faith actively.

But yes! It is true that southern baptists and mormons have pretty high divorce rates.

Frankly, I wouldn't be so offended if they had gone after divorce before going after gay marriage. At least divorce is an issue that affects them.
