You can run Blender without Python installed. It only allows the built in functions, but that is still a embarrassment to work with.

Once Blender is open, and if you do not have Python installed, you will see the message:

Checking for installed Python.. No Installed Python found.
Only built in modules are available. Some scripts may not run.
Continuing happily.

Not only can you run Blender without Python, but it will run happily.
