(Artificial insemination or surrogate mothers). There's also the option of adoption in which the dna has nothing in common with the parents themselves.
I voted against marriage between brother and sister simply due to genetic reasons.
The argument others were making is that little people, for example, have an even greater risk of having babies with birth defects. Do you think they too should be forbidden from marrying?
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
