媒体上有很多关于现代社会礼貌缺失的讨论。从许多标准来看，人们似乎普遍失去了一定程度的礼貌。阅读《科学家》最近几篇文章后的一些网上评论似乎表明，生物学家也失去了他们的礼貌。这种缺乏基本礼貌的行为让我感到震惊，不仅因为这对我们的社区意识有明显的危险，而且因为这种行为可能会损害社会对科学家的积极看法。每当科学家（或冒充科学家的匿名博客）对不同意他们观点的人的愚蠢行为大发雷霆时，我们的集体信誉就会受到侵蚀。是的，作为科学家，我们应该对许多问题充满热情，但我们的目标最好是保持客观的态度，尊重那些我们碰巧不同意的人。
There has been a lot of talk in the media about the loss of courtesy in modern society. By many criteria, it seems that people in general have lost a degree of politeness. Reading some of the online comments after several recent articles in The Scientist would seem to indicate that biologists have also lost their manners. This lack of basic manners alarms me not only because of the obvious danger to our sense of community, but also because this type of behavior could damage society’s positive perception of scientists. Every time scientists (or anonymous bloggers posing as scientists) rant about the idiocy of someone who disagrees with them, our collective credibility erodes. Yes, there are a number of issues that we as scientists should be passionate about, but our objectives are best served by retaining an objective demeanor and respecting those to whom we happen to disagree.
