A male United States age 36-40, anonymous writes:

I need advice please, I raise my brother and sisters 5 and 8 and a step sister thats 15, how this came to be is long and tragic and i preffer sticking to my qestion.

We where at a freinds house he has to afghan hounds male and female,my freind begans to tell the children there brother and sister and as a suprise he comes out with a basket heres their children seven pupies he says. Big can of friggin worms .

The little kids start asking where do puppies come from i told them they come from the same place stars come from there like oh heaven im like yeah.Then my step sister blurts out if the dogs are brother and sister and they had pupies togather thats incest.

OK so my friend walks away even saying im on my own on this one.

So of course the little ones want to know what incest is. my step sister obliged them and told them when a sister and brother have sex and its sick etc i told her to cut it out its not funny and they dont need to kno this stuff.

i had to explain its ok for animals just not people they asked why i said becuse where not born with fur.I told them some things where just wrong like stealing things that hurt people are wrong,

so there like oh so if you hve incest you will be hurt im told them that people who did that will die they seemed confused but didnt have any more qestions,

my step sister was acting really imature laughing an giglin but didnt get them started again the thing is she was molested by a relative when she was younger so shes knows the dieng part is bull sht and apparently she said it was consentual thats why he didnt go to jail.

Ok my qestion was that a sufficient explanation, my problem is i couldnt tell them why it was wrong a real reason why,i kno its messed up and sick but theres gotta be a side effect besides dying and going to hell. i dont think my step sister will go to hell. if there is how does anyone kno did harvard do a study on it.my rule of thumb is if its illegal its wrong but weed is illegal but not every where and who cares.

The only reason i care is cuse i dont like lying to kids the find out the truth about everything eventually and think your bullsht so need a good answer. secondly i was thinking about the bible if there was an adam and eve and they ahd two sons where did there wives come from.

Hey, I can't really help you with the morale side of it, but Biologically, if a brother and sister have sex, and during sex the woman conceives, then the baby will be born with some kind of physical or mental difference from 'normal' people. In most cases, these diferences tend to disadvantage the child somewhat. I hope that clears up atleast half of your question :)

A female reader, anonymous, writes (15 August 2009):

There are many cases of incest in the bible, though christianity still somehow gets away with preaching that its morally wrong.. As an atheist i think you're right, your stepsister wont go to hell for her actions.

I would say the biggest reason incest is wrong is the effect it has on the incestual couples offspring - which are often born with abnormalities, an indicator that incest is biologically wrong.

But morally there are no real reasons, its just judged by todays western society because its seen as strange, and we treat brother/sister relationships as purely platonic.
