That's how dogma works.
Exactly. Dogma works the same way for Scientists that it works for people of Religion.
Just because a group has the "Scientist" label, doesn't mean they're espousing sound science and not dogma. You see dogma from Scientists in Global Warming. You see dogma from Scientists when it comes to evolution and long ages. And you see dogma from religion, when it doesn't match up with what we understand God told us.
