[quote=Anonymous][quote]What you call "dogma", or more respectfully the "tenets" of most religions, is different. [/quote] NP. Dogma is a term with a very specific meaning in religion. It is commonly used and no one who actually understands the term as it applies to religion would consider it disrespectful. What you call the tenets of a religion are more commonly referred to as [I]doctrine[/I]. The difference between [I]doctrine[/I] and [I]dogma[/I] is that, in general, [I]doctrine[/I] is all church teaching in matters of faith and morals, while [I]dogma[/I] is more narrowly defined as that part of doctrine which has been divinely revealed and which the church has formally defined and declared to be believed as revealed.
