Phil, normally the wider scientific community has debates which are well conducted and for the most part the participants respect one another.
However, don't ever think that really heated debates and even all out barneys don't occur. Even in debates where things are generally done in a respectful and proper manner (for the most part) there can be some rather heated situations.
