Yes, they bring out recessive lethal genes
It could be dangerous but it’s not certain. Although the chances of genetic diseases are rather high, it’s not a guarantee that the child will have some form of genetic disease. Marrying your 1st cousin is not good at all while marrying a 3rd cousin could be okay. But should you marry your third cousin or not is up to you. It’s always better to marry someone that your family has no connection with.
