Are You a Person Who Likes Reason?

On this account, mathematics is a kind of useful fiction. It happens to describe parts of this physical reality but it cannot possibly have a reality apart from the material world. This is sometimes called physicalism or materialism. On the other hand, hard nosed materialism says only physical stuff exists. So if you are a person who likes reason, you seem a little bit stuck. Do you prefer brilliant mathematicians, or do you like hard nosed physics types?
