If we all descended from one man and one woman then it's quite apparent that a third generation was not possible without the sexual union of close relatives. Does the Bible (or other Christian source) specifically address incest? Is it a sin? If it is not a sin then does it follow that it is not practiced in Christianity for purely secular reasons? If it is a sin should the children of Adam and Eve not have reproduced?
