FROM THE ARTICLE:

"The conservative view is that all sexual deviance—homosexuality, polyamory, adultery, bestiality, incest—violates the natural order. Families depend on moral structure: Mom, Dad, kids. When you confound that structure—when Dad sleeps with a man, Dad sleeps with another woman, or Mom sleeps with Grandpa—the family falls apart. Kids need clear roles and relationships. Without this, they get disoriented. Mess with the family, and you mess up the kids.

That’s a pretty fair summary. Of course, the Christian argument goes much deeper than the merely conservative argument, affirming the fact that, with exacting precision, God has spoken to the sinfulness of such behaviors — specifically condemning both homosexuality and incest. In other words, Christians move the question from mere wrongfulness to sinfulness and place all issues of sin within the biblical account of sin and redemption."

Thank you to Dr. Mohler for concisely addressing this issue. Sadly, America will be forced to confront this abhorrent and debauched behavior more in the coming weeks, months, years as this becomes common in mainstream society.

May the Lord have mercy on us.

The scientific answer is a very high probability of
a defective offspring due to recessive lethal or
defective genes. Unrelated individuals are much
less likely to bring two identical defective genes
to offspring. There will usually be one good copy
that is also dominant over the bad version. The
religious and societal taboo is a social construct
that memorializes the prohibition so the errant
pairing is avoided.

[that's not what girls are for]

A father/daughter relationship is suppose to be special because it's emotionally satisfying without the threat of sexuality to the daughter. Without this threat the girl is more open to share her emotional weaknesses which in turn would be balanced by the insight and logic of the father. This results in the girl having a broader perspective, becoming more savvy about the real world. But when you take away that safety you cause damage to the psyche of the daughter. A thought that should never even be there, a boundary that should be immovable has been proven weak and a secure world has become now inconsistent. That's a dereliction of a father's duty, to allow his child's world become insecure and inconsistent. She needs to learn from example that a good man has sexual control and will not misuse her or be manipulated by her. And that's the kind of man she will seek out. That will result in the propagation of another secure, generational structure.

If we don't want to be accused of attempting to establish a theocracy, we can't say that homosexuality or incest is wrong simply because God says so. But in a culture that is quicker to worship nature rather than God, we can say it is a crime against nature to misappropriate your sexuality when you're a naturally made man/woman, father/daughter. Homosexuality is an abuse of one's sexuality, (and we don't give children to sexual deviants BTW.)

As far as the structure of our country goes, incest and homosexuality are wrong because it is we the people who say it's wrong. According the the constitution, the people are the highest sovereign authority of the United States. And we the people will not legitimize your sexual deviancy by tolerating it or calling it marriage. Not in our name. We can coexist so long as you keep your privates to yourself. But when you make your sexuality a public issue, a national issue, you will by God hear from us! Don't Ask Don't Tell.

incest implies coercion.

The guy in question claimed he never had sex with his daughter until she was of legal age, but as a doc I question this. I suspect he “felt her up” or had non intercourse, priming her to obey him.

even brother/sister incest implies coercion, often because the girl involved lives in a dysfucntional family where girls are taught to “obey” men.

It’s not only a Christian taboo: the legend of Oedipus showed even an “accidental” incestuous marriage was seen with horror, and Paul, in Corinthians, admonishes a man who lived with his father’s wife, pointing out not only was it against God’s law, but because it was horrifying the local pagans.

Finally, it’s the genetics.

Even cousin marriage in Europe led to congenital deformities and hemophilia which resulted in destroying the monarchies.

Look at King Tut’s congenital deformities and check how Egypt had quite a few dynastic changes...every few generations there was a new dynasty, probably because Egyptian pharoahs married their sisters (or more commonly, half sisters).

What does Obama have to say about this?

Mr. Obama spent two years at Columbia College and graduated in 1983 with a major in political science. He did not receive honors, Mr. Connolly said, though specific information on his grades is sealed. A program from the 1983 graduation ceremony lists him as a graduate.

In addition the incest and adultery practicing married Professor David Epstein also has taught at Harvard. In other words, Obama and Epstein walk in the same socio-political circuits.

Will Michelle approve of incest for Barack? Or will she adopt a DADT policy?

Aren't the APA and Academe mostly all phallic-worshiping primal hedonist-atheists?

Just sayin'.
