I think the major problem is that you have a very significant (far beyond that in normal relationships) of emotional abuse, or more specifically an older brother misusing his sister's emotional tie to him to emotionally coerce her into sexual relations with him. Add that to the fact that it is VERY risky genetically (and if it became common, it would indeed be very, very bad for the global gene pool) - but not just for the global pool, but also for their children, who have a much higher risk of genetic defect themselves - and I see no reason to permit it.
Exactly, we should also sterilize other genetic misfits and prevent people who are close friends with girls from abusing their emotional ties to coerce them into a sexual relationship.

I’m so happy, finally a simple +1 generator thread. Usually people on poly have more intellectual integrity or at least don’t contradict themselves so much. But cultural taboos prevent them from admitting there is nothing wrong with ****ing your sister (if she is a consenting adult) on the one hand, but the Nazi taboo prevents them from accepting the logical outcome of this that other genetic misfits should be face jail time for having children, as well.
I can just keep pointing out the inconsisntency over and over and over. And no one will budge, since they don’t want to be seen as the guy who would **** his sitster.

There are a nontrivial number of genetic traits for which people often have a single recessive but not a second (or have 2 out of 4, etc.), where it is very likely for two siblings to end up with a child with 2/2 or 4/4. For example, I'm a carrier (2/4, probably) of alpha thalassemia, and if I were to procreate with my sister it's not unlikely that a child could be born 3/4 (very bad) or 4/4 (miscarriage).
Your family is an unusual case. Most families do not have that kind of genetic problem. So while in certain individual cases, the probably of genetic defects increases dramatically, for society as a whole, the probably increases only a very small amount.
The proof is in the pudding. Most children of incest do not show signs of defects.
Your better argument is power relationships and abuse of emotions. However, it wouldn't apply in this particular case, as they met when they were adults. Apparently, there is a very strong sexual attraction between family members that only first meet as adults. It is not all that rare for close family members who meet for the first time as adults to have incestuous relationships.
Christianity: The belief that a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree...

As is zoophile and homosexuality.

This is untrue. Children are more likely to have recessive traits expressed, which may include health defects, but they are not likely to have them. It takes generations of inbreeding for such traits to express themselves regularly. The Habsburgs didn't go to pot all at once. Frankly, improper nourishment during pregnancy is far more likely to result in birth defects than incest, and we don't require women to take folic acid supplements, etc.

Voice of reason.
But, Chez you don’t honestly expect people burdened by their subconscious desires and unresolved conflicts to listen to science in this case? It would make them feel too insecure. Its much easier to be hypocritically selectively tolerant to evolutionary suboptimal sexual instincts.
Except for the people who belive in eugenic laws and consider homosexualty a disease. They are the only consisten people in this thred.
oh, and the people who think it is a sin. But they are siliy for other reasons...

This is true, but this does not mean they don't have them. Such defects can be hidden for generations and then strike pretty much out of the blue.
This is, however, not a reason to outlaw incest. As long as exclusively consenting adults are involved, it's not the state's business with who one sleeps.
By the way, what the article does not mention (but others do) is, that the girl was slightly retarded (not completely insane, though). This might be a reason for the harsh sentence.
His sister, Susan K., who is now in her early 20s, was placed under the supervision of social services.
What does this mean? Is she not competent?
