Alex;
As you know, marriage has come in several forms throughout time. Polyandry, Monogamy, and polygamy are three forms of marriage. Egypt, and Ancient Greece are examples to study. Gods married gods. Brothers married sisters. That which is acceptable changes with time.
Soon you will be able to marry your gold fish, cat or dog and it will be socially acceptable. Why I would dare say that someone will find scripture in the Bible that allows that to occur! :)
