If you’re looking for factual information about the religion of Islam @YasMohammedxx is the greatest ex-Muslim source. I trust her. She’s fair and honest and still holds a deep love and respect for those suffering under its rule.

Yeah, I agree that explains a lot. Must be a reason why only muslim countries keep marrying their cousins. Mohammed was not a good role model in this aspect. The catholic church forbade it, something islamic sheiks cannot do.
It’s the same reason why rape of children persists. You can’t make it illegal to marry a six year old if the greatest example of humanity for all time married a six year old.

It's actually very interesting to see, in real time, how most people in these countries are made increasingly uncomfortable by such practices, but can't do anything about it due to conditioned religious beliefs.

As Robert Trivers would say, parent-offspring conflict. It's never in the daughter's interest to be married off to a cousin as a child. But in a tribal society it can be in the parent's and the extended family's interest.
