Tradition can be DOGMA and DOGMA is more important than DOCTRINE.
Your uppercasing has been countered by my uppercasing.
***Dogma is the official system of belief or doctrine held by a religion, or a particular group or organization...***

I’ll stick with SAINT PAUL, the APOSTLE TO THE GENTILES.
GALATIANS 2:
7 But contrariwise, when they saw that the gospel of the uncircumcision was committed unto me, as the gospel of the circumcision was unto Peter;
8 (For he that wrought effectually in Peter to the apostleship of the circumcision, the same was mighty in me toward the Gentiles:)
9 And when James, Cephas, and John, who seemed to be pillars, perceived the grace that was given unto me, they gave to me and Barnabas the right hands of fellowship; that we should go unto the heathen, and they unto the circumcision.
