Disappointingly, you seem to think that your dogma is not dogma because it's not the same as their dogma.
Far from being disappointing as the only "dogma" committing me to (or from) Buddhism....is me.
So the man who told me to educate myself about dogma, as a rebuttal to the statement that there was a buddhist dogma......didn't know what dogma was? Typical.
I'm glad to hear that no one has forced you to accept their dogma, that you have done so all on your own. This is hardly unique to buddhism. Many muslims and christians have -also- decided to swallow their faiths dogmas whole, themselves. You all have your reasons, I'm sure.

I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom.

I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
