Onhwy61, Swampwalker, apologise if sarcazm bites your nerve tissues, but I was NOT confronted by truth but rather dogma. Dig difference?
bellow notes from wiki for your future reference:
Dogma is a principle or set of principles laid down by an authority as incontrovertibly true.[1] It serves as part of the primary basis of an ideology or belief system, and it cannot be changed or discarded without affecting the very system's paradigm, or the ideology itself. The term can refer to acceptable opinions of philosophers or philosophical schools, public decrees, religion, or issued decisions of political authorities.[2]
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".
Let me know if you need to know other life examples of other common dogmas if curious.
