programmer_guy,
When I met Jim in late 1999, he had been divorced - I believe for quite some time.



Eventually, I did found this:

Quote:
People are not allowed to have sex outside of marriage in the Sea Org. Young people get married just because they want to have sex. The divorce rate in the Sea Org is very high. You get 25 year olds who have been married 3 or 4 times. In the Sea Org marriage is a joke. There are very few stable marriages in the Sea Org.


I have wondered, from time to time, if the divorce rate among Scientology staff has been significantly greater than the U.S. nation average. If so, how much?

Does anyone have any info on this? (Yes, I did a web search and didn't find much.)

Also, the divorce rate among ex-Scientologists would be interesting, however, I don't know how anyone could even estimate this.

I wonder what on earth the concult would do if a demographic sociologist showed up at their door asking scientologists to participate in this kind of research.

I guarantee you the divorce from reality rate is sky high.
