Incest is NOT Wrong

Regarding teen pregnancies, Yes, I understand that teen pregnancies are a problem today, but incest being legal won't mean there will be more teen pregnancies or incestuous teen pregnancies. Here's why: A) You mentioned gay children being in relationships. This is just a slippery slope fallacy, except we know that this slippery slope doesn't go where you say it will. In my opening statement, I explained that the gay community is still a small minority in the population despite homosexuality being legal now. Meaning, it being legal doesn't mean more people will want to do it. In short, what you're talking about is not a concern because it won't happen. And in the odd scenario where a brother gets his sister pregnant and has a kid, it's still a choice (due to safeguards for before and during pregnancy that I've listed in my opening statement). Abortion, You're talking about limitations to abortion, but I don't know why. I recognized that not everyone will want to do an abortion, which is why I listed many more alternatives. But your reasons for why someone can't do an abortion aren't good enough to rule out abortion as an option. A) Some have religions beliefs - Yes, and it is everyone's right to practice whatever religion they want. Still, it's a choice. If someone chooses to practice religion and accidentally gets someone pregnant, then I'd congratulate them on the fact that they can choose to have their religion AND their baby. B) Some can't afford it - Health insurance... Move to Canada. Haha, but seriously, there are other less costly methods of birth control (condoms, birth control pills, plan B pill) and they are available to everyone who can't afford an abortion. C) Abortion leaves scars - So does having an empty wallet and losing the opportunity to find a good career. And so, my point stands that there are no accidents, as you have failed to explain how someone who has a kid, didn't choose to not use the aforementioned alternatives from my opening statement. In case you mention extreme cases, those extreme cases don't justify treating the normal situations as extreme cases. To conclude, my statement that incest is not wrong is a moral statement. A statement that is based on harm principles, the very same principles that legalized homosexuality. The act doesn't necessarily have to be moral, but if it isn't immoral, then there is no reason for it to be illegal. Incest is one of those things. There is no reason for it to be illegal Why? Because, there is no reasonable harm as a consequence of legalizing incest. The proposed negative consequences of incest were its impact on teen pregnancies, and that children would be born (especially as a result of teen pregnancies) because "All it takes is a slip up." The problem with this proposition is that my opponent could not get around the fact that there are just too many safeguards that prevent child birth before and during pregnancies. Meaning, if someone has a kid, it was no accident. It was on purpose. My opponent was unable to demonstrate reasonable harm as a result of incest because (s)he failed to demonstrate how birth control pills (and patches), condoms, the morning after pill, and abortion aren't accessible and viable options to stop someone from having a child by accident. Thus, there was no harm demonstrated as a result of incest, and my point still stands. Incest, the act of having sex with a family member, is NOT wrong, because in truth, it is harmless. Thank you for taking the time to debate with me, I had fun!
