His argument regarding banning incest to prevent confusing relationships, in my opinion, has the same problems the homosexal argument has. It opens too many doors.

Fits, and in my mind most obvious, if one is concerned about avoiding confusing relationships, we have to outlaw divorce. Clearly the change from spouse to ex-spouse is confusing. This is especially true in the case of married couples with children.

We also would have to prevent women from having children with more than one father. The children must be very confused if they have different fathers.

No more marriage after being widowed. If you do, we have 2 people who have filled the role of spouse. Too confusing.

Can't have inter-racial marriages. How will the child be able to fit in with either group?

2 people from different religions? Nope. How does the child worship?

People from different parts of the country better not get married either. There are very different customs in different areas. Very confusing. And don't get me started on accents.

The thing is, these arguments are all subject to being taken to an extreme once you open that door. Some of the things I list sound pretty good, until you see how the same logic can be twisted.
