Tuff seems to have tripped over himself, so let me try.
The statement:
"My God is Good, is ruler of the Universe, and has commanded this of Me, so it is Right"
Is a perfectly logical and unanswerable statement.
As far as Dogmatism goes, the worst offenders in Western society currently are probably militant atheists; not theists. whether militant atheists count as "religious" or not is a different debate.
However, while I agree that Reason is a central faculty in the application of morality it cannot create the metaphysical concepts which morality ultimately rests on.
Science, on the other hand, is merely a glorified means of measurement; it is inherrently blind and has no place trying to impinge upon moral philosophy.
