[QUOTE="John G., post: 77623009, member: 454209"] You are judging by today's standards. The first created humans didn't have genetic defects like we have now. Marriages between brothers and sisters did not produce defective offspring and were not taboo. Abraham married his half-sister, Isaac his cousin, Jacob his cousin. Moses' parents apparently were nephew and aunt to each other. However, as time went on, things changed. Thus Moses - or should I say God through Moses - forbids marriages like his parents had. In later years, more restrictions came into place as genetic mutations arose. In the Greek Orthodox Church, for example, one cannot marry a third cousin (but a fourth cousin is acceptable). [/QUOTE]
