The question, "Does anyone know any reason why these 2 should not marry?" Was an appreciation of the frequency of consanguinity rural communities.

So you take a sociology class at Berkeley. What if you disagree with the professor politically and philosophically? Do you pass or fail?

[@trflock]

I think you misunderstand what sociology is. It is not just a bunch of people sharing their opinions. It is based on empirical evidence. If you disagree that is your right. Sort of like when a conservative Christian disagrees with evolution in a biology class.

Do you pass or fail if you question the political views of the liberal sociology prof?
