Did you say ad hominem?
In other words, you don't.
We've been through this. Your position that you simply feel that it's wrong to seperate twins at birth is not a proper indictment of the...
No, I'm asking you to justify your expressions of outrage. In your subjective opinion, what principle(s) of ethics did the researchers violate?
Don't let my presence get in the way of your intellectual honesty. Either you admit you were wrong, or you don't. Do you have a rational...

My argument is that nobody has shown what principle of ethics has been violated by this study. Your answer was that you just feel that it's...
I went and did some research and found nothing suggesting that seperating a child from siblings at birth in any way harms him/her. Everything I...
I don't beleive you. Post a link.
That's not a valid argument, but I guess you know that.
