You are soooo... wrong from the scientific point of view. Genetic diversity is a plus, not a minus. The very opposite of genetic diversity is inbreeding -- that is why there is a natural taboo against incest in practically all human communities.

Inbreeding mutlitplies the chances of harmful genes manifesting themselves and is therefore not advisable. But marrying people from a different gene pool -- that actually makes great genetic sense because it will increase the chances of survival of whatever offspring produced.
