“This practice [of first cousin marriages], which has been prohibited in the Judeo-Christian tradition since the days of Moses, was sanctioned by Muhammad and has been going on now for 50 generations (1,400 years) in the Muslim world. This practice of inbreeding will never go away in the Muslim world since Muhammad is the ultimate example and authority on all matters, including marriage.
“The massive inbreeding in Muslim culture may well have done virtually irreversible damage to the Muslim gene pool, including extensive damage to its intelligence, sanity, and health. Lowered intellectual capacity is another devastating consequence of Muslim marriage patterns.
“In Denmark, non-Western immigrants are more than 300 percent more likely to fail the intelligence test required for entrance into the Danish army. Sennels says that ‘the ability to enjoy and produce knowledge and abstract thinking is simply lower in the Islamic world.’ He points out that the Arab world translates just 330 books every year, about 20% of what Greece alone does. In the last 1,200 years years of Islam, just 100,000 books have been translated into Arabic, about what Spain does in a single year. Seven out of 10 Turks have never even read a book.” – American Family Association radio host Bryan Fischer.
FACT CHECK: First cousin marriage isn’t exactly “prohibited in Christian-Judeo tradition.” In fact, it is legal in 19 U.S. States and in all the nations shaded blue below. Cousin marriage is also not prohibited in the Bible, obviously, with many Biblical figures married to their cousins.
