Isn't the belief that everything can be answered by science

YOU ARE MUTUALLY CONFLATING RELIGION, AND DOGMA.

UNTHINKING BELIEF IN SCRIPTURE IS A FORM OF DOGMA; UNTHINKING RELIANCE ON SCIENCE (SCIENCISM/SCIENTISM) IS A FORM OF DOGMA.

Yes but the difference is that science changes everyday. So it has nothing to do with faith.
In science what is true today, it might not be tomorrow. Perhaps someday someone will come up with a better theory than the big bang theory.
Religion is nothing but superstition and dumbing the populations, saying the human being is incapable of doing great things and that we're all idiots and sinners that should fear hell and god. It was used to explain natural phenomena like raining and earthquakes, until finally someone came up with the real explanation.
Traditional religions are cancer and they will disappear on their own.
Consumerism and sports are the true religions of today's times. Shopping malls and sports arenas filled with people everyday, while sites of faith are getting emptier and emptier on western societies. Some even install wifi to pander to the youth people, but it's useless. The knowledge it's free, people don't need that superstition anymore

basically this and now this argument should be considered resolved

>Quietism in philosophy is an approach to the subject that sees the role of philosophy as broadly therapeutic or remedial. Quietist philosophers believe that philosophy has no positive thesis to contribute, but rather that its value is in defusing confusions in the linguistic and conceptual frameworks of other subjects, including non-quietist philosophy. By re-formulating supposed problems in a way that makes the misguided reasoning from which they arise apparent, the quietist hopes to put an end to humanity's confusion, and help return to a state of intellectual quietude.

that's called logical positivism and often laughed at for just that reason

the more enlightened statement is "every question that has been satisfactorily answered has been answered by science", which is different because it is merely observable fact and not a predetermined conclusion.

Science isn't anything more than a method of extracting knowledge for what you can observe, measure, or deduce from the former two. There are different bodies of "knowledge", ways of thinking that employ different sets of information taken as fact. But there is no dogma of science, simply the basic assertion that there is truth and that seeking proof is a sound way to go about attaining it. Anything else is just ideology and dogma masquerading as science much in the same way that all religions masquerade as truth despite them being conflicting and none showing any more credibility than the other. Science is nothing more than an ongoing struggle to determine why something is one thing and not another

Science is a method of investigation
It is neutral and the best tool we have to understand the world around us
The "problem" is scientists
They are human and therefore prone to bias
The scientific community is prone to build dogma over time and work against critical investigation of established theories instead of continuously trying to falsify them, like they should

Another big problem is funding by cooperations that makes the research prone to fabricate the results the "sponsor" is expecting from them

This and other funding-related shenanigans are a FAR bigger problem than dogma in science

Science is the biggest spook going around right now, not even memeing.

This. It would be like believing in "Religion".
