Again false statements. Jesus said I Am the way, the truth and the life, no one come to the Father except by me. At his baptism God the Father declared, This is My beloved Son. As John says In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 He was with God in the...

What do you want to debate? Incest is prohibited by both scripture and common sense based on scientific facts.

Sorry this is nonsense. Truth is what most accurately describes a situation, an event or all of creation. As a Christian you are aware that Jesus is the Truth and the only way to God, so all religions, beliefs, faiths etc that don't recognise this are by default wrong.
