Did you know that some Muslims are required to marry their cousins? Isis has to be one of those Muslim groups right?

I think it’s the families that arrange those marriages. A lot of serious birth defects in some countries as a result and the couple will continue to have babies even with multiple children with those birth defects. Heartbreaking for the children.

@cherokeepatti hell there are people in the Appalachian mountains who still do that to this day 🤣

@Eternity It’s disgusting. They are isolated from mainstream society and get by with it. There was a family here where a brother & sister were having brain-damaged babies and the doctors informed the law and they did something legally about it. I knew someone who was a neighbor to that family.

I heard they cut off the left pinky toe of the first born son and feed it to their goat for luck.

Hmm not sure what your point is here.. In fact many or even most muslims marry a cousin. They are often fairly distant cousins but arranged marriages are not at all uncommon, so in that way most marriages are 'required'

It's legal in much of the US, too, and it was how/why people got married hundreds of years ago.
