I person could have married divorced and then married again in the same year.

by Anonymous 14 years ago

But wait, if they married the first time that would be +2 to the count. Then they divorced (doesn't affect count) and married again +2. So still an even number, no?

by Anonymous 14 years ago

No, it just said that many people were married. The person who married, divorced, and married again would only count as one because you can't count the same person twice. You just can't. Because I say so.

Haha, in most places, you have to wait a while before marrying after divorce, I think

not really because they are not married until they are pronounced man and wife so even if one said i do in 09’ and one said it in 10’ they have still not been pronounced husband and wife until after the second person says i do

Not for a long time. One of our 'comandments' is to follow the laws of the land. Once it became against the law, we stopped doing it. You've probably heard of the FLDS church in Texas. FLDS is and off shoot of our church, kind of like the Protestant church is an off shoot of the Catholic church.
