How far related would you and your partner have to be as to not make it incestuous in your own custom or culture or religion?

I'd like to know from as many customs/cultures/religions as can be. How far removed one is from their partner so that they are not already considered family members, to whom marriage would be prohibited?

I don't think there is a defined answer but I'd venture to say something like a 3rd or 4th cousin whom wasn't in your direct family lineage.

According to Evolution and most scripture, we all came from a common set of ancestors; so it's all incest isn't it.
