Re WinnieThePooh’s post beginning “lesschumras, the OP asked for people’s opinions ….” Yes, the opening poster asked for opinions, and you have, perhaps rightly, assumed that he/she wanted uninformed opinion unrelated to actual facts. That may be acceptable at rallies for presidential candidates, but here at YWN, we want sound opinions based on facts tied together by logic and Torah.
Nevertheless, your assumption about the opening poster’s meaning is reasonable in that he/she started his/her post with an unsubstantiated fact, i.e., that the divorce rate in the “jewish” community are so high. I have read in many sources (sorry, I cannot name any) that the divorce rate in the frum community is lower than in the total Jewish community, and lower than the total American population.
I refrained from posting because I had no sources, but when you disparaged the YWN Coffee Roomers (rhymes with rumors) by suggesting that they do not expect facts, well … that’s all I could stands and I can’t stands no more.
