I don’t claim they’re wrong, only that the scientific community expects everyone to take what they say as gospel, even without direct evidence. That to me is the basic definition of religion.

IMHO, that’s a very shallow criteria for defining religion.

For example, it could lead to (with sarc) “The Religion of OSHA”, because if there’s anything which wants you to take their pronouncements as gospel … OSHA’s definitely it.
