Viewing science as an unquestionable dogma is, in itself, deeply unscientific. That doesn't change that this kind of thing, this "i read the headline of an article about a study somewhere and that means i got science on my side" is a widespread attitude, and i can get behind a good-faith critique of that.
It's just that i usually see this being brought up in bad faith atm and think we should be vary of that.
