The Evolution Of The Species

@zzyzx0788 Back then it was very common to marry your cousin. Even thoug Darwin was familiar with the negative impact of inbreeding in doves, he wasn't sure that the same laws would apply to humans. He had to bury two of his children for that, and that idea would haunt him untill his death.

@Xgya2000 Excellent points my friend but you purposely leave out a major oposing factor... death is but a time of great pay off... "eternal bliss in the golden streets of heaven with our grand sky father (wings and halos :) for the good children" and eternal agonizing torture (beyond the imagination) for the bad children". Wake up sheeple and get your soul saved in the name of Elohim Yaweh Johova...the gods of Abraham, Jacob and Isac before its to late. RUN FOR YOUR LIVES...i MEAN SOUL.

@zzyzx0788 They didn't know then the consequences (genetic) of this. But it is actually his discovery that enlightened this to change. Did you ever see the Habsburg dinasty LOL that's a laugh!
