Dave,

Scribble does not have great support for typesetting math. I would love
to use Scribble for all my typesetting needs. However, I have to
fall back to Latex whenever I need to typeset math.

There are ways to insert Latex in Scribble. Others on the list might
have more information about how to do that. 

If you have the time, I recommend learning both. Scribble and Latex have
a lot of similarities, so learning them side-by-side can even be useful. 
You'll also discover the relative strengths and weaknesses of each.
