Fine, that's your opinion and your right and I'm not saying you can't hold that viewpoint. But it's not a logical and resonable argument, is it?

answer me this, would you have sex with your mum? How about your dad? If the answer is "no, I'm not sexually attracted to them", how about if you were?
Whether I would or not is my own business. Whether I am attracted to them or not is my business. What I do about it is *nobody's* business but mine and my parents if it's between two consenting adults and not done for procreation.

Now you answer me this: What if I was a Roman Catholic and wanted to go out with a Protestant. How many people do you know who would *also* find that stomach turning? Or what if I was white and wanted to go out with a black girl? Or what if I wanted to go out with another man?

All of these have been "stomach turning" for some people in the past, yet, somehow, we have managed to be grown up enough about such things that we can get over our knee-jerk responses that it's automatically "wrong" if we try hard enough to open our minds.
