Some judges have allowed hospitals to disconnect life-support equipment of patients who have no prospects for recovery. But I say that is cold-blooded murder. Either we put a stop to this practice now, or we will soon have programs of euthanasia for the old and infirm as well as others who might be considered a burden. Rather than disconnecting life-support equipment, we should let nature take its course.
All of the following are valid objections to the above argument EXCEPT
(A) it is internally inconsistent
(B) it employs emotionally charged terms
(C) it presents a false dilemma
(D) it oversimplifies a complex moral situation
(E) it appeals to authority not universally accepted

Hi @sony100
I believe that it does not matter what the authority is. Because :
a. The authority is not mentioned.
b. Even if it were mentioned, the statement in Option E would not weaken the conclusion or the support given for the conclusion (here it's the if-clause in the argument). Whether the conclusion appeals to someone is irrelevant.

Bunuel Can you please help break down the argument and identify the conclusion. I am more interested to learn how to find the argument conclusion. That will eventually help solve the problem effectively. I am confused between "But I say that is cold-blooded murder" and the last statement. Which one of these is the conclusion and why? Thank you.
