Why? Because you don't like/understand it?
Besides, theoretical maths (by this I am assuming you mean pure maths) funding is, well, non-existent. Never mind that uses for so-called "theoretical" maths are found every day. For example, non-euclidian topography is pretty much the basis for electronic cryptography.
Just because there are people that like and are good at something you don't see an immediate use for is no reason to condemn it.
This is a very narrow-minded argument for a science-based forum...
