Supergrunch Posted January 12, 2008 Posted January 12, 2008 Hey if the Adam and Eve theory is tr00 we are all related in some way or another, no? I think we're all related however you look it. (unless you're think all people were brought into being or something) What's important is degree of relatedness.
jayseven Posted January 12, 2008 Posted January 12, 2008 Queen Elizabeth the 2nd and her husband both share teh same great-grandmother, and as supergrunch says, it's not an uncommon thing for royals to keep it in the family; pure blood and all that stuff.

And with royals, we can also look at the spreading of haemophila. (thought to have arisen from a chance mutation that made Queen Victoria a carrier) Note that this may well have nothing to do with inbreeding.
MoogleViper Posted January 13, 2008 Posted January 13, 2008 There was something on QI about everyone in the world being able to be traced back to this one woman or four woman in the same tribe or something. I'm sure somebody else can remember.
