I hate

1. Scientists with no background in ethics discussing ethics.
   utterly fucking pointless. We're never, ever, ever going to have our say in the end, whats the point.
   Do good science and thats that.
   N.B. I am not saying scientists should not consider ethics, but I don't think certain issues merit navel gazing shitty debate.
   
   

Thank you.

What constitutes a background in ethics? Can you ever truly be an ethical scientist or can you only be an ethical scientist? By operating within your own human moral values, you’re working to a strict ethical charter that will govern everything you do.

I’m more familiar with nautical politics to be honest.
