Exactly.

Hey NirvanaMan, it would be wonderful if you actually read the article I linked to, instead of debating a thread title.

I find the implications of blue states having lower divorce rates to be very, very interesting indeed. I did not expect it at all. I looked up some state divorce rate stats (there are tons of sites with lists) and guess what - Ohio is smack in the middle of the list. Heh.
