It should give pause to anyone that thinks our instinctive moral sense has a logical basis. In this case do we trust logic or our innate moral sense? Perhaps they can be reconciled. But I don’t see how.
In this case, I'd trust logic over innate moral sense. In other cases, I'd do the same as long as the principle being applied is sound.
