Incest...ok or morally reprehensible?; Talk about whether you think it's ok to have in society or if it is so vile it deserves ALL OF YOUR HATE.

I think we're all in agreement that incestual reproduction is a bad idea, the discussion now is more about whether it's "right or wrong" and should it be allowed.

Personally I think that advances as a society and culture have, at least in countries like America, removed biological darwinism, or survival of the fittest, almost entirely.

Somebody may have to double-check my actual science here for me, but if it's sound, how in the hell could you have an issue with it? It's a subconscious biological impulse that drives our species very survival (and all other species survival)...not to mention the reason we exist.
The thing is that when two perfectly healthy people, if related closely, reproduce, the recessive alleles that would cause problems like mutations become way, way more likely. So the offspring of two perfect condition people may be in very poor condition. It's a matter of chance and circumstance.

Ahhhh, more "reverse darwinism" then (survival of the weakest and idiotic) in that respect...
