In the Roman Empire there were links between a whole host of things. Why, I'll bet one might even find a link between homosexuality and heterosexuality in human history!
I'd also bet that in human history, incest and bestiality have never been more frowned upon than they are now so chin-up boys. We are in good shape.
For example -- did you know that when Franklin Delano Roosevelt married his lovely wife Eleanor she didn't even have to get the name on her cheques reprinted. Why not? Because her last name was Roosevelt before she married the great man. They were cousins!
Can you imagine a President getting elected today that was married to his cousin? I can't. For example if someone had asked John Kerry where he had met his wife and he said "family reunion", would he have gotten the Democratic nomination?
