Hasn't most of the inbreeding occurred in Alabama, Tennessee, Arkansas and the surrounding states?

If it was not actual forcible rape, but only an age thing, it's entirely analogous to the "two teens" and ceases to be anyone else's business.

People who want to commit fraud in that way can do it now just as easily. Nobody is recommending dropping penalties for fraud.

You underestimate the power of abuse and the dynamic of abuse in the family unit and science disagrees with you.

But I'm glad to see that right wingers hate gays so much, they're willing to argue at length in favor of sister rape.

You just want to facilitate it.

I'm just glad now we know what the right means when they talk about traditional family values.

They're talking about incest.

Ideologically motivated woo-woo science, for sure. You underestimate the biological power and significance of--to use the scientific term--horniness.

I trust you're not crazy enough to classify me as a right-winger, but since you don't know what rape is, perhaps I'm mistaken about that.

That's meaningless and a weak attempt to get around the simple fact that nearly every single time siblings have sex, one of them is the victim of abuse, something you can't say about gay or straight non-related couples. You fail.

I trust you're not stupid enough to be so desperate to attack gay marriage that you're willing to go to great lengths to support incest because you're, for lack of a better term, wedded to a terrible analogy that you should just abandon by now.

Homosexuality and anal sex were once outlawed. There was a time when it could have never been envisioned that two homosexual men could marry each other. Today, we have homosexuals getting married.

Using liberal ideology, and the homo-activism associated with it, of course siblings should be able to get married. Why not? What's the difference between two men and brothers and sisters getting married?

Liberals have never been able to comprehend the "slippery slope" theory. It's absolutely beyond their intellectual reach. That's why they have avoided this thread. They are now being confronted with a theory that their emotional (not logical) minds can't understand.

Using liberal logic, of course siblings should be able to get married. Liberals have never been able to comprehend the "slippery slope" theory. It's absolutely beyond their intellectual reach.

That's not liberal logic, that's right wing logic. As evidenced by the fact that only right wingers are putting forth this idea.

Why are you guys so pro-incest?
