Math has a strong foundation of postulates and theorems, however they cant be considered conclusive and unarguable. Ethics can depend on the context of a person but in general there are certain things that can apply to everyone. The truth value of a religion would always depend on the belief and faith of a person The natural sciences are similar to math The social sciences are similar to natural sciences
