Let us focus on the original Greek meaning.
The term derives from Greek δόγμα "that which seems to one, opinion or belief"[3] and that from δοκέω (dokeo), "to think, to suppose, to imagine"
So this has really nothing to do with......... A principle or set of principles laid down by an authority.
As i said yesterday anybody can create a dogma if we stick with the original Greek meaning and also doesn't mean that the believes should be incontrovertibly true.
It is just an opinion that born in the imagination of someone and come with no evidence.
Now as far as this opinion stay in the mind of the one who originate this idea is ok or it is bad only for the one who create this idea but as soon as it is spread around and affect other people for the worse then it create a problem.
Human nature is a constant quest for mental expansion so when one is expected to accept the idea without question it create a problem as the mental expansion is checked.
But let us go back to my point in which i said that atheism is based on dogma.
After having read countless of times in different threads of this forum that ..........
..........the consciousness is a product of the brain.
..........with the physical death everything is over.
..........our consciousness come thanks to previous generations..........and so on.
i have to come to the conclusion that constantly repeating these mantras which are not backed up by solid evidence create a check or a block in the mind and not only in the mind of the one who originate the thought but also in the mind of anyone who follow these thoughts.

.....Dogma is an idea with a rigid boundary line, which won’t allow you to go beyond the periphery of that boundary line. Thus dogma goes against the fundamental spirit of the human mind. The human mind won’t tolerate anything rigid. It wants movement – not only movement, but accelerated movement. Humans want unbarred psychic progress, intellectual progress, without obstacles.
