The Bible is explicitly incestuous in the story of Lot, whose own daughters slept with him.
The Bible is implicitly incestuous in the creation story. Where did Cain's wife come from? OK fine, so God made more people? Fast forward - the Bible is implicitly incestuous in the deluge story. Afterwards, all that remained on Earth was Noah's family and a bunch of animals. God didn't say He was making any more people, but rather told Noah's family to go forth, "be fruitful and multiply" (Genesis 9:1). After the first generation, incest was inevitable.
Evolution is, I'm guessing, also incestuous...as that little group of primates broke off, I would think there would be substantial re-mating until other members of the group's former species were similar enough as to mate and produce viable offspring.
Science or Religion, whatever story is true, face it: we're all distant cousins. Think about that on your honeymoon.
