- distinguishing Lawrence from laws criminalizing incest, which is a “far greater and much different” interest
- upholding in- cest ban in light of the state’s “paramount concern [of] pro- tecting the family from the destructive influence of intra- family, extra-marital sexual contact. This is an important state interest that the Lawrence Court did not invalidate”
