Christianity has nothing to do with this. Many religions have ideas about sex with close relatives. Scientifically, for first cousins, it’s best not too, but unless the family has some serious genetic diseases, who cares. However, there may be LOCAL laws against it. Otherwise, be discreet. Several famous people actually married their cousins.

If he is a blood relative you may just notice he is good looking and your hormones are making you think you like him…but unless he is a 3rd cousin or 4th I woudn’t take it any further than your imagination because you are blood related and that’s incest. It’s understandable to be attracted to someone you are close to, but you have to draw the line somewhere and that usually begins with family relations.

Can everyone stop talking about incest! My grandparents are first cousins and my mother turned out pretty fine, in fact she is a CEO of her own company and very intelligent. So unless you have genetic problems you won’t have a messed up child.
