In a way, yes, science is a religion because it makes people believe in things they have no means to check if they are true. On the other hand science doesn't encourage you to kill those who don't believe in science and that's a good thing. )
Not all religions encourage their people to kill others. In fact, the vast majority of religions encourage the opposite. Atheists generally are not bad people, just like people of other religions.
When science that is not known to be fact is promoted AS fact, and when it has a lot of writing pertaining to it, then the science theory starts to become religion, and the writing about it becomes the dogma.
For example, Big Bang Theory is theory simply because it is not known to be fact. Hydrolysis is science fact because it is understood and used all over the place. But nobody will ever be able to determine if Big Bang Theory ever really happened, because there are (supposedly) 13 billion years separating us from BB times, and nobody can tell how many other events might have happened in all that time to make us FEEL like there was a Big Bang.
The things of many religions are unknown to be factual. Yet many of these things are treated as factual by religious people. Religious dogma has to do with writings about religious things that are not know to be factual.
Big Bang Theory is unknown to be factual. Big Bang theory is treated as factual all over the place. Big Bang writings must be Big Bang dogma. Big Bang is religion. Science theory that is believed to be truth is religion.
