Marry yer cousins for N generations.

So, all in all, it's not a terribly good idea.

Not unless you want to end up like the Labrador or Dalmatian with nasty inbred problems... And having seen some of the "uncle-bother-cousin" throw backs at the school gates It's starting to be more of a case that only their own family would touch em...

Interstingly, there's a book regarding inbreeding, called Inbreeding, Incest, and the Incest Taboo which recently came to state Scotland had a huge issue with Inbreeding in which close cousin marriage was proscribed on religious grounds by the Roman Catholic Church.

Interesting really, but I guess no surprise...

Does make you wonder just what sort of person might read such a book, far less find it interesting.
Nowt as queer as folk as they say.

Q.E.D. You see, its posts like this that highlight the case, for as you can see, there is no where it suggests I read the book does it.

Dear dear, too fast on the trigger there weren't you. I guess you were so excited, you actually forgot to read what I posted.

Very illuminating. Catholic you say?
