Charles Darwin & Emma Wedgewood: A Cousin Couple

"When the principles of breeding and of inheritance are better understood, we shall not hear ignorant members of our legislature rejecting with scorn a plan for ascertaining by an easy method whether or not consanguineous marriages are injurious to man."


~ Charles Darwin. (1871)

as for the bible
Isaac married Rebekkah, his first cousin once removed. Genesis24:12-51
Jacob married two of his cousins , Rachel & Leah. I love this story! Genesis chapters 28-29)
Zelophehad's five orphaned daughters were commanded by God to marry cousins. Numbers 36
Eleazar's daughters each married first cousins, as they were instructed. I Chronicles 23:22
In the 18th chapter of Leviticus, the Bible provides a lengthy list of forbidden relationships. These laws are the scriptural definition of sexual impurity. Not one mention of cousins, of any degree, is made.

the New Testament does not specifically address the rules of sexual misconduct, with the exception of fornication, other than to refer

Biblical prohibitions of cousin marriage reside only in the minds of the unlearned. In fact, the Catholic Dictionary finds that Christ's parents-- Joseph & Mary-- were cousins.

I've always been very high maintenance and have always put a lot of attention on looks,brains,class and wealth in the opposite sex.My fiancee and I are supposed to get married in 6 months and I know he loves me unconditionally as he's proven time and time again but I just don't think I'd be capable of ding the same for him.If anything was to happen to him that would damage him physically or worse I wouldn't be able to cope and would walk away for sure.How do other people fo it?What keeps you there by their side?I've always walked away when things are less than perfect and I don't think I'll ever be able to change.Do I still marry him?

If a woman sends an email to her ex boyfriend and says he is the best and she will never find anyone as good ever and she knows that and thinks of him often. And also says to her ex that he has her heart,body,mind and soul. Also that she desperately needs his approval about her life. But at the end of the email says" I am so confused".
What is she thinking?

If god loves us so much why does he kill our loved ones before they are really intended to die. For example my mother died when I was two. If god so called "loves" everyone then why did he take my mother away? Also why does everyone say that Jesus was a god. He was a shepard who believe everyone should love eachother, he controdicted the theory of "An eye for an eye" He was a shepard who got alot of followers to believe in him, not a god.

i spent many years in the church and in what I believed to be an authentic relationship with Christ. However, over time and a series of hurts, spiritual abuse and hardening of the heart I drifted away. Bitterness took root and I threw in the towel. But I still believe, though I have been in much sin. I also quite gunshy about the church as an organization. I had some really hurtful and bad expereinces. I am not blaming just stating how I expereinced it. Also I never found the strength to successfully overcome lust. I did come out of a evangelical church and worked for 15 years as a volunteer for a Christian charity.

Do you think scripture still allows for me to be a candidate for God's grace?

Over 5 months ago, while He was in jail, not speaking to me, I posted a question on this site. I honestly wanted to know if maybe my best friend of 7+ years could possibly be bi or even gay. It would have explained a lot of things. But unfortunately, eventhough I had forgotten all about asking the question, He found out about it. How do I tell him that I never meant to hurt him. I only want to understand him. Nothing will ever change how much I care about him.He means the world to me, and I am so sorry that I hurt him like this. If he reads this, I hope he will find it in his heart to forgive me. I couldn't understand how, after all that we have been thru, why would he just give up on us, without a word. Can I ever make this up to him?

I have some digital artworks I made from my computer that I want to send to various companies and hopefully they will recognize my talent and consider me for hiring. I had these drawings for a few years and have been wanting to show them to the public. Family, friends, and strangers and told me I was quite good and that it doesn't look like I drew it using my mouse but I copied it off of websites. I don't just want to store them in my computer forever. Any advice?

This question is not open to religious people, sorry but i only want answers from people who live life for what it is and agree that when we die, we rot and that is all.
I want to know what, when your time comes, you hope to have done with your life, what you want to leave behind, and what you dont want to have not done before the end. Cheers


And please no religious people!!!! You are on every other question i ask and im sick of mumbo jumbo answers about 'Letting Jesus in'. He can sit outside and wait for all i care.
