In Catholic theology, a human is defined by their possession of the faculties of intellect and will which have their seat in the mind, thus for every mind that exists there is a soul.
In the case of Siamese twins or two heads on one body; it is proper to say rather that these are conjoined twins: two people who share a body or some of its organs or parts. In the case of those who are born with extra limbs or with the conjoined twin dead, the dead twin is usually removed for the health of the twin that has survived.
For each defined consciousness there is a soul. As is always the case in such matters, each person, whether attached only at the hip or sharing a body, displays independent thought, decisions, dreams and actions. Probably an excellent example of conjoined twins is Abby and Brittany Hensel, a charming pair whom no one could question as to whether each has their own personality and soul.

How do you separate fraternal twins?
Fraternal twins do not need to be separated-- Siamese or Conjoined twins do. Because fraternal twins come from two eggs, they would never have a conjoined twin condition. Conjoined twins occur when an egg divides during the early embryonic stage, but fails to divide completely, resulting in shared body parts and organs.
What are the issues doctors and parents face when a conjoined twins are born?

What is special about conjoined twins?
In the development process, either the egg didn't completely split, or they joined together at some point. Typically conjoined twins share one or more body systems. Usually they have a common circulation system. Depending on what organs or systems they share, they may be able to be split apart.
Can conjoined twins feel both sides of the body?
They often don't. Unless they share a nervous system (and these rarely survive birth), they can only feel what's going on on their half of the body.
What causes twins to be conjoined?
When a fertilized egg doesn't completely spilt to become twins which happens with identical twins of the same sex.AnswerThe process is a mystery of nature, but starts out as Identical twins-which according to fixed biological laws, take the same gender. Something goes wrong in the replication process, and the twins are conjoined or literally joined together there are various points of attachment.In some extreme cases one can have a Y-Job, that is one basic body with two heads, this is true of the sisters now living in the midwest, they are blondes, with two heads, two hearts, three lungs, and other anomalies.Conjoined twins are always the same gender, two boys or two girls. they start out as orthodox identical twins, and then the wrong buttons get pushed. There are some staggering variations, as four arms no legs and the bodies joined in the center with two heads at opposite ends like a ferry boat, which are rarely viable.AnswerConjoined twins are formed when twins are somehow deformed in the major body formation of childbirth and form themselves together.When identical twins should be formed, the egg (zygote) does not fully split therefore creating conjoined twins.Siamese twins or conjoined twins are formed when a single fertilized egg splits and develops into two individuals. These individuals are born with some of their body parts joined together.twins are conjoined due to the egg not completely splitting inside the womanWell first ill start out as the sperm tha does not eat through the egg all the way and as 2 sperms eats the egg it can break but not all the way so in like about 3 dayz later ur prenant. And when u go c what it is ull c 2 heads sharin' the same organs.Sorry my info was so longCali NixonCaliNixon72@yahoo.comIncomplete production or forming of normal twins. this also explains supernumerary appendages such as a Girl with Three arms I saw who worked in a department store. The third arm was short and stubby, but she had some control over it. a store in the same chain also had a camera vendor with only One arm, the shirt sleeve being tied back, it was strange.MagicWhen ordinary identical twins are created the egg splits in the womb and the two twins grow separately. In Siamese twins this does not happen properly and the two groups of cells (of each separate twin) grow around each other becoming fused forming a Siamese twin.
What is the difference between identical twins and conjoined twins?
Conjoined twins are identical but attached to each other and may share organs depending where they are attached to the others body. Conjoined twins are attached because the egg cells have not separated properly in the mothers womb.
What are the symptoms of conjoined twins?
just that they are conjoined, or joined together by a body part. if they are conjoined at the head, it could causes brain damage and depending on how much of a brain they share they will have to do surgery and during the surgery one of the babies will die. if it is not too severe, a quick separation won't do anything, but could causes mental problems during birth. i am not sure what happens by being conjoined at the heart, though. i think that is either impossible, or the baby(ies) is born dead.
How are conjoinede twins connected?
There are many ways that conjoined twins can be connected. there have been some that were connected by a piece of skin, really any part of their body can be connected. The reason this happens is when two or more of the mothers eggs are fertilized, they can become connected, and than as they grow, they are stuck together.
