Hi
Stop misquoting the facts!!!!!
Quote from the link:
He claims: "Neither the scientific nor social assumptions behind such legislation stand up to close scrutiny. Such legislation reflects outmoded prejudices about immigrants and the rural poor and relies on over-simplified views of heredity. There is no scientific grounding for it."
Peter Corry of St Luke's Hospital in Bradford estimates that among people of Pakistani descent in the city, 55 per cent of whom marry first cousins, the risk of recessive genetic disorders is between 10 and 15 times higher than in the general population.
Lucian is also aware that laws, preceptions and culture changes over the years.
Lucian is aware that hundreds of years ago the well to do married cousins and also particiapted in 'arranged marriages - on the whole this is not longer the case, fact!
Asides that friend, an example of changes to way people live, EG being gay in England was against the law a few decades ago and law was changed. A few years ago gay marriahe was allowed. You look acrosss the world and not too far from home ie EU, age of consent varies, fact!!
Therefore, if you have an agenda against us, start your own thread and log in you twat.
Yes, for the record Lucian and family would never marry a cousing - and dont beleive us but read the link to see in which culture this is most prevelant. It's not against the law and we dont have a problem with that but our family are not into marrying cousins and the gentics thing needs to invested further, fact!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
