On the first point I have not seen *any* reasonable proof or logical argument to back up *why* it is wrong, just circular arguments of "it's wrong because it's incest and incest is wrong" and "it disgusts me and lots of others" which, whilst emotive, is not exactly a reasonable argument.
On the second point I have seen reasoned arguments in favour this, yet I haven't seen anyone demonstrate *why* what consenting adults do (especially if not for procreation) should be the business of others.
Frankly I have no more interest in contributing to this thread because I enjoy having a reasonable debate but I'm not going to hang around to simply be abused for simply holding a "non-majority" viewpoint.

Graham, to be fair, if holding a 'non-majority' viewpoint, was the whole point, you would have a point, and no doubt a dog called Arrow
- but, people have been expressing how they feel & what their opinion is about this emotive subject - there can be no "proof or logical argument", for that?
- in my view, this is one issue where keeping one's own council (counsel?) is best
