There's a difference between willing sex and pedophiles who molest children (and in ancient cultures, those 12 year olds were considered adults as they had hit puberty). The difference is the term "willing."
Personally, as long as it doesn't involve molesting children (CHILDREN, as defined by today's strictures, not the terms that were applied 200+ years ago) and having sex with animals (who we cannot communicate with and therefore cannot give their consent), I'm down with it. Willing, adult participants (however many, whatever gender, regardless of relationship to each other) are my only requirement. Otherwise, I don't care. Remnant, gay, straight, whatever. Although Nanaki's participation would sort of bother me, and he's an intelligent animal. *shrugs*

Identical twins have the same DNA, yet they're separate people. If they were to have sex you wouldn't say, "That's okay. They're just masturbating."
Sorry, couldn't help myself.

Aqua, you make me laugh.
Like whoa.
But, I will stay out of this ummm. . . fight between the people. Because, you wouldn't like anything I have to say.

Sorry, couldn't help myself.They do have the same DNA, but have different genes turned on and off. For example, usually only one twin will get a serious disease (cancer, for example), while the other one is perfectly fine. It has to do what genes are turned on and off... and it's different even from identical twins.

Yeah, usually the differences are determined by external stimuli. The differences phenotypically, meaning in appearence, are determined by things such as nutrition, exercise, mental health, radiation exposure, injuries...pretty much anything you can think of. If they had different experiences in life, they are going to look different.
So commandments? Hmm...Rude is not black.

DAMMIT CAPTAIN YOU BEAT ME! Genetics are the reason I'm doing Biology But yeah, it's all about the nature v nurture argument, but I'm not sure what you mean by genes being turned on and off, identical twins have identical DNA and differences between them are caused by their enviroment not their genes at all.

I had a coach in high school who is Rude's twin. No joke. But yeah, Rude probably just spent too much time out on the beach in Costa del Sol. So commandments? Hmm...Rude is not black. He's not? World foundations: *crumble* ~Ally~

leaf, I don't think you realize how disturbing it is that you're talking about DNA and genetics with Hojo sitting up in the corner...

Genetics is fun.
I'm signed up for the Genetics course in the spring. It's going to be so much fun, and we get to play around with our own DNA. Hehehe! So, if I have a foot sprout from my head it's all alright.

Yeah, they told us A-level biology would be about genetics, but so far it's just cells and chemistry I mean, if I wanted to do chemistry, I would have done chemistry...
