We have laws against incest and there does not seem to be any organization challenging those laws.

And what legal principles underlie those laws? If it is religious or tradition, that is gone with an Olsen-favorable ruling. If it is proceation, that is also gone, since the Olsen case seeks to invalidate procreation as a legal precedent for "marriage". Strip those away and I see nothing to prevent an easy challenge to both incest laws and incestuous matrimony.

I am opposed to gay marriage.

However, Olson is going to argue that Prop 8 violates the Equal Protection Clause and this Court will but that argument and overturn Prop 8.
