Similarity Entire science is based on axioms, basic postulates that cannot be either proved or disproved. In this aspect, science is very similar to religion.
Objectivity Entire science is based upon several consensuses: in the past, some people sat together and made agreements: 1+1=2, there are 10 digits; these are letters, these numbers, etc. And then we call it objective.
Minimalism The biggest minimalists out there are mathematicians. Sometimes their whole life could be summarized with a problem that requires two lines of text.
