Meaning that 26 permit it. No one has yet demonstrated an increase in stillbirths or genetic defects in first cousin consanguinity.

Not sure about that. Over in Britain, the Muslim population from Pakistan routinely engages in first-cousin marriage and has demonstrated a statistically significant higher level in all kinds of genetic disorders and mental retardation.

Do you have a peer-reviewed reference for that, by any chance?

Well, you gotta be pretty retarded to be a Muslim in the first place.
