Argument over doctrine or belief (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

polemic

(Other definitions for polemic that I've seen before include "Speech or writing that fiercely attacks or defends" , "harangue" , "Controversial line of argument" , "Fierce spoken or written attack" , "Controversial writing or oratory" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
