What exactly do you mean by an operating system? If you don't want to program in C/C++ then you're going to have a hard time. I don't want to be too discouraging, but with that attitude I doubt you would get very far.
It sounds like you want to make more of an OS shell -- no? You can implement a shell on top of any OS and probably do it in a language like Python. But if it is going to be a complete OS in pure Python, uh, it won't be! You'll have to do a lot of stuff in C, at the least interface with the hardware.
