You just tested Positive for Stupid.
Have you ever heard Albert Einstein mentioned he was a Physicist?
natural philosophy was the common term for the study of physics.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natural_philosophy
on Einstein desk, there is a book on PHILOSOPHY because,
that is how he learned...Relativity.

Natural philosophy or philosophy of nature is the philosophical study
of physics, that is, nature and the physical universe.
Learn to read.
Isaac Newton's book Philosophić Naturalis Principia Mathematica
(1687) (English: Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy)
Math is.. Philosophy.
mathematics were a part of natural philosophy...
Math is not science. Numbers don't exist.
dis stuff is all in the head.
(or should I say...all between your pointed ears?)
you gotta knock off dis off-the-cuff talk...
Usenet will not have it.
