I've responded with the same response every time this question has been asked: How is that a relevant question? You would not be harmed if a man wanted to marry his daughter. Should that be allowed?

What does it mean to do justly, love mercy, and walk humbly (Micah 6:8)? So, is that small portion of the Bible the entire basis of your faith? In the explanation, "living with a sense of right and wrong". That's sort of open to interpretation in a big way.

I thought it was relavent. I posted that other are also not in the Bible. Not an attempt to hijack a thread. But I will remember not to do so next time and to remind you as well next time you post something I donot think is relavent.

Seeing as this is not in the Christianity section, marriage could also be between gods such as Fredya and Odin.

The two greatest commandments are also part of that foundation.

And just how do you interpret it? I thought god's word was CLEAR and never confusing?

Because Exodus 21:7-10 states a man can sell his daughter into servitude, and the buyer can give that woman to his son and that the woman is now to be treated as his own daughter..so god seems to think buying a woman and giving her to your son as a wife is just peachy keen..

It's a relevant question because you continually act as though you are personally injured because of same-sex marriage.

To address your question:

There are proven genetic dangers connected to inbreeding.

There are none -- none at all -- with same-sex marriage.

Having sex with your daughter is okay with God, so many he will let you marry your daughter? If God says no to marriage, He is more than likely OK with grandchildren?

No. It isn't. Scripture explicitly condemns such things.

I've never argued that it causes me personal harm.

So? There are specific health issues related to gay sex.
