If it isn't a planet, then obviously we can't call it a "dwarf planet".

I don't think anyone in this debate is being "dogmatic". Rather, some are challenging the criteria promoted by a certain subset of scientists.

Rather than invoking the great god "Astronomy 161 podcast", how about some actual dialectic?

By the way, science and religion very often co-exist peacefully, most notably, perhaps, in the intellect of Isaac Newton.
