I'm a mathematical physicist, and I honestly can't see how this could work. Physics, the foundation of all natural science, is completely unintelligible (and even unimaginable) without mathematics. How can you hope to understand motion, without understanding geometry first?

What most most people don't seem to appreciate is that mathematics is far easier than physics -- conceptually, at least. The concepts of physics depend on those of mathematics. And using physics without grasping its concepts is dangerous. People will die. People have died.
