“If you go back 15 generations you have over 32,000 ancestors (barring any duplications where the same person is your ancestor on more than one line). Going back 18 generations you have over 260,000 ancestors. With such figures there are bound to be some individuals who were conceived because of rape or incest—and without their having existed, you would not exist. “

That’s a lame argument. I have no reason to believe anyone in my bloodline engaged in rape or incest. Besides you can extrapolate forever about what if this happened or that didn’t happen, where would I be? Well, if the right people didn’t hook up at the right time, you very well might not exist and you know what? If you didn’t exist, you wouldn’t be able to give a damn.

Your ignorance of history is breathtaking.

The entire country of Poland has genes from a dozen invasions by murdering, raping hordes.

Your argument is emotive and not rational BB

Might be lame, but since we all have the same ancestors if you go back far enough, we all have sickos in our shared tree.

Check the replies.

He should have cited a source, but he’s correct.
