We do through reason and argument. Rather than taking our marching orders from some book written 2000 years ago. That how we determined slavery was wrong after thousands of years of justification of it in religion.
No one said incest was good. All Professor Krauss said was that there is an evolutionary explantion for why incest is disgusting. If that evolutionary reason didn't exist then there probably would be no good reason to make incest illegal. That is called using logic and reason to make decisions rather than emotion and ignorance.
Incest is currently criminalized and has been that way since this country was founded.
What made the founding fathers ban incest...surely at that point in time it couldn't be based of science alone?
There is incest in the Bible...

Umm, children born of incestuous parents are only 3-4% likely to have birth defects, compared to 1-2% from those born from non-closely related parents.
There is no logical/evolutionary reason barring siblings from sexual behavior.
No, I'm not endorsing it, either.

Innocence lost in the EAST
lets play a little thought experiment
if tomorrow it was discovered that God doesn't exist, how would you behave morally to other people? would you begin raping, pillaging, and killing? or would you still behave morally
As an atheist, my moral beliefs don't depend on the existence of God. I do good because I think its necessary if we want to live in a just and peaceful society. Remember the golden rule. Do onto other as you would like done onto you.
However, as a religious person you seem to be implying that you can only do good if a God exists. That is why I said atheist morality is superior to religous morality. You do good only because you fear some negative repercussion or gaining some reward from a creator. I on the other hand don't believe in some supreme creator. I do good simply for its own sake. I'm not doing it because I think I'll be punished or rewarded in the afterlife.
There is incest in the Bible...
In the new Testament? :jada:
Was incest condemned in the new testament?
Aren't you a product of incest? Adam and Eve...
Damn Christians are nasty
Doesn't the bible say we came from 2 people and they we're told to multiply? Wouldn't incest have been necessary for the offspring? Wasn't the og hebrew Abram related to Sarah?Over the past year i've read about a man marrying his pillow, a woman fukking her dog, a son fukking and impregnating his mother, and i'm probably forgetting at least 10 other
moments.If two siblings want to fukk, let them. As long as they dont try to force that lifestyle onto me and my family, and dont try to guilt me into "accepting" those life choices as "normal" or appropriate, i'll be ok.
If one is serious about their faith, they would be doing everything in their power to either change whats happening, or they'd be on their way to a hollier place in the world so they can live how they believe their god intended.
Societies fukked:
non-answer
anyway, how do you feel about the incest that would have resulted from the adam and eve story being literally true

Show me a place in the Bible which says Adam and Eve were the only human creations of God.
It's says they were created first and leaves it at that.
No where does it say Adam and Eve were the only creation
You can believe whatever the heck you want, all I know an atheist society and ideas like yours will never survive. That's why there has never been one.
Slippery slope arguments you make
You need something to "define" morality.
you could apply that to anything :vince:
Are you going to answer my question? Was incest condemned in the new testament?Show me a place in the Bible which says Adam and Eve were the only human creations of God.

When did I say, Adam and Eve were the only human creations of God?
