No-fault divorce

John writes that NY state still doesn't have no-fault divorce, even the NY Bar Assn advocates it. Here is a recent case:
Judge denies divorce: Adultery not enough

Says husband’s admission of affair is not sufficient to end 17-year marriage because wife resumed sexual relationship with him
John also says that this editorial is a textbook illustration of how people cling to their preconceived "logical" theories for decades after they have been totally disproved by the empirical data, i.e., reality. It describes what everyone predicted as the concept of no-fault divorce swept the nation in the 1970s.
