Re: “Cousin & wife”

Some people are fixated on the fallacy that cousin couples pose an intolerable risk to their offspring. However it is likely that we are all descendants of cousin marriages. Before civil laws banning cousin marriages, it was preferable to marry a cousin in some communities as it is to this day in many countries. The notion "why marry a stranger" is just as prevalent in many countries as the cousin marriage taboo in America today. There are a wide range of opinions on the subject of cousin marriages. This is fueled by erroneous information, bigotry, and presumptions.

Fact- No European country prohibits marriage between first cousins. It is also legal throughout Canada and Mexico to marry your cousin. The U.S. is the only western country with cousin marriage restrictions.

Fact- Albert Einstein married his first cousin. And so did Charles Darwin, who had exceptional children.

Fact- We are all cousins. No two people are more distantly related than 50th cousins.

"Nicolai Sennels, a prominent Danish psychologist and anti-immigration activist, has written that intensive inbreeding has made Arabs too aggressive to integrate into western society."

Based on what do you make such a comment, based on their aggressive language? that is ludicrous. You (Nicolai), yourself have an aggressive language(Danish), do you much trouble integrating with the western society?.

Thanks.
