Doesn’t it strike you as a bit creepy that your candidate married his own 3rd cousin.

You do realize that you presumably have dozens of third cousins you nothing about, right? Your third cousins would be the great-grandchildren of one of the siblings of one of your 8 great-grandparents. You could potentially have hundreds of descendants after that many generations. This is a silly ignorant argument, only effective with those with limited intelligence.

“Your third cousins would be the great-grandchildren of one of the siblings of one of your 8 great-grandparents.”

First, it wasn’t a silly argument, it was a question. Second, I had no idea the degree of separation. You could have left out the “limited intelligence”, I don’t believe many people would, on the surface, know this information.

But thanks for helping me understand !!!
