That's a dodge. The point in my asking that question is to see if you're sufficiently well acquainted with any meaningful literature to actually provide an example substantiating your claim.
Inverting the question does not obviate the answer to what I asked you. Moreover, as stated your rebuttal question is underspecified: what do you mean by the "dynamics of money" and "stable foundation"? Can I trivially answer this by talking about the relationship between credit and debts, or are you looking for something more specific? You responded to my (very precise and specific) question with a vague, orthogonal dismissal of the entire field.
Why don't you tell me about the "mathiness" in some peer-reviewed economic paper (preferably in a tier 1 journal) that you perceive to only be correlated with real world conditions in "very narrow circumstances"?
