Richard: I learned my physics dogma at Harvard Grad School. Before that I was a mechanical engineer.
Fine, but to 'think: what is a dogma' you learned as a li'l kid when you had to pray at bedtime. BTW (I never attended Harvard) did they teach you that 'physics' is a dogma? I try to identify 'phisix' as a way to explain poorly understood phenomena in our ignorance - using math as the 'main' tool.
