More of the story...Judge Garry Neilson who compared incest and paedophilia to homosexuality 'clearly in error', appeal judges find

It stands to reason that if abortion is viewed as morally and legally correct, other immoral acts will become socially acceptable as well. Now, according to a judge in Australia, incest is one of those acts.
During the trial of a brother charged with raping his younger sister, Judge Garry Neilson said that incest may no longer be morally unacceptable because the only reason it is criminal is due to the potential for abnormalities in any conceived children. Neilson said that thanks to contraception and abortion, there is no longer that risk.
The man on trial had raped his sister beginning when she was as young as 10 or 11 and pleaded guilty to that. However, he pleaded not guilty to the charges against him for the incest that occurred after the sister turned 18.
“A jury might find nothing untoward in the advance of a brother towards his sister once she had sexually matured, had sexual relationships with other men and was now ‘available’, not having [a] sexual partner,” the judge said. “If this was the 1950s and you had a jury of 12 men there, which is what you’d invariably have, they would say it’s unnatural for a man to be interested in another man or a man being interested in a boy. Those things have gone.”
The judge went on to say that by the time the sister had turned 18, they were both mature adults, and since she had been sexually involved with two other men, she had been “sexually awoken.” And since sex outside marriage and homosexuality have now both become socially acceptable, so can incest.
This isn’t the first time that the legality and acceptance of abortion has led to the idea that other illegal and immoral acts should become acceptable. We saw it with the idea of after-birth abortion, or infanticide.
The Journal of Medical Ethics published an article that stated that babies are not “actual persons” and therefore have no “moral right to life,” therefore after-birth abortion should be legal. In some countries it is legal now to kill disabled newborns, and in 2013, Planned Parenthood lobbyist Alisa LaPolt Snow spoke in support of the choice to deny medical care to babies born alive as a result of a botched abortion:
How many longstanding laws based on our moral code will soon be struck down thanks to the legality of abortion?
I guess you have your share of fruitcakes too.
Even those too young to consent are now being given autonomy. Even the (sex scandal ridden) United Nations is pushing for children to be able to consent to sex at any age (it in their rights of the child manifesto).
Sex positive agenda advocates are grooming children for hedonism.
The judge was thinking like Mohammed.
For this ideology, there’s no “too young to consent,” unless the subject is too young to speak. Sex-positive reasoning has no other logical conclusion. Can pre-pubescent children experience pleasure from sexual stimulation? If they can, then they have the right to do so, and they have the right to do so with people of either sex and any age.
I have a good vocabulary. Why can’t I think of anything but four-letter words?
Just plain sick.
This is one reason liberals love abortion so much.
They see orgasm as a birthright to be enjoyed at every age and with that, they believe in educating/grooming them to seek orgasms.
That is the goal of sex education for the past 5 decades. It isn’t about “mechanics” or “biology” or even safety.
They also see abstinence as an unhealthy suppression of sexual desires (and counter to their “if it feels good, do it” philosophy).
They consider opponents (and “the Church”) to be “sex negative”.

He should have been made to step down. I need to take a bath in Fels-Naptha after reading this story.
$#!@ if I $&!#$&! know.
No reasonable likelihood of psychological damage to a young girl getting hit on by her father or brothers, eh? That judge has flipped his wig.
I used to joke that in the leftist mentality, if you don’t abort them you can have sex with them.
I was hoping it stayed a joke
Agreed.
Maybe the judge was saying “You people want abortions. Here’s what it’s going to lead to.”
We all know that Abortion is used to hide cases of Rape, Particularly statutory rape, and Incest all the time. When 12, 13, or 14, year old child has an abortion, it is rarely reported by PP and that is a crime in every state. It is accessory after the fact for statutory rape.
It happens every day. Most often it is the ‘father’ or ‘step-father’ who did the deed and made the arrangements.
I recently watched The Giver.
Recently and loosely related to The Giver, I caught a brief cable segment that concerned traits prevalent in psychopaths. Both spoke to the lack of normally intrinsic human empathy; the former in the dystopian context, the latter explained in scientific terms. I was entertained and informed respectively. I was also reminded of the Left.
