Modern physicists tend to understand math but not physics. They
develop their theories in mathematical terms, and explain them in
mathematical terms, but when asked to explain them in physical terms
are unable to do so. This makes them different from their more
illustrious predecessors. For these modern physicists, math has
replaced reality, because they don't really understand reality. They
believe that if the math works, that's reality. Unfortunately, there
are infinitely many mathematical models that will work, but they don't
necessarily have anything to do with reality.

You won't be able to find anyone who can explain string theory without
using math. But Einstein could explain physics without math.



Wrong again. First thing he would have said after talking to you is "You
are one dumb mother****er"


That's math.
