Women make 2x as much money on divorce as on getting married. Its the same precedence of desire over reason that causes women to get divorced. But why is it unreasonable? For the same reason as it was unreasonable for Eve to eat the fruit.

First you claim that women have a financial interest in getting divorced, and then you claim that it's desire and not reason that makes them want to get divorced. A financial interest would be a "reasonable" reason to get divorced.
Of course, your entire argument is a load of crap.
Actually, my mother had to pay my dad child support. Didn't do a great job, but I blame the alcoholism (why she didn't get us in the first place). So, your point fails.
"Women make 2x as much money on divorce as on getting married.
Because men are automatically given huge raises when they get divorced?
Seriously, how does that work?
Actually, statistically, he's full of shit. Statistically, women are more likely to get the kids but lose out financially.
Mo. Ron.
Actually, their main points are correct.
Divorce courts favor women over men. Women almost always get the kids, even if the father wants them, too. And it's nearly always women who get alimony.
"But why is [divorce] unreasonable? For the same reason as it was unreasonable for Eve to eat the fruit."
She'll gain knowledge of good and evil, make God angry for no clear reason, and suffer the pains of childbirth?
“Women make 2x as much money on divorce as on getting married.”
How do you figure? While we’re married, she has access to everything we own.
On a divorce, she can only count on getting half of what we own.
So, a share in 100% of our value, or 50% of our value.
I don’t think you’ve done the math, you’re just upset that you have to give her ANYTHING for leaving you.
“Its the same precedence of desire over reason”
So, greed?
“that causes women to get divorced.”
But that doesn’t work, either. It’s far greedier to just outlive me and get it all.
“But why is it unreasonable?”
Well, if all she cares about is my money, then it’s more logical AND more profitable to start cooking my food with arsenic. Or digitalis in my drink.
“For the same reason as it was unreasonable for Eve to eat the fruit.”
Well, Woman ate the apple because she had no means of reasoning that it was wrong. She did not know right from wrong, nor did she have the capacity to think it through.
Real women outside of fairy tales tend not to have that problem, so your analogy fails as bad as your math.
Confused?
