When I said I was skeptical of dogma, I meant anyone's dogma. That includes from the scientific commmunity, although I find that more often than not it's the journalists doing the writing rather than the scentists themselves and the science behind it that's to blame.
Knowing two Deans of engineering in the Big Ten universities (and many researchers therein), listening to all their comments on funding for what is politically correct (e.g. global warming), I beg to differ.
Science is overwhelmingly beset with a socio/political set of biases today, among which is a mindset towards atheistic dogma.
