Excellent point! I happen to have a genetic condition (Celiac disease) and my wife also has a genetic condition (Psoriatic Arthritis). There's a high chance that any offspring we have will have one or both of those conditions (or others). It's a large descision that we need to make considering baring children. On the one hand, the conditions are not life-threatening and are mostly controllable through diet and medications. On the other hand we could adopt a child and not promote our genes but help society by raising excellent children. A tough one for us.
I don't have any rational problems with people having incestuous relationships (if they are consentual). But I still think it's icky! :)
