kant literally didn’t even live to see chemistry. Lavoisier published his findings during the time Lant was writting his critiques and till the chemical revolution was underway Kant was long past retracing his steps of believing chemistry to be brain dead empricist experiments à la alchemy to seeing it as reaching the level of physics in empiricist necessity but spacialtemporal a peioei forms beyond basic arithemtics but as the mecessary categories for the mind (verstand) only by whoch the world can go(think) (its natural laws) by.

As it's hard for an ant to understand man, it's hard for man to understand God.

Make no mistake, the Truth of Thought is God. In philosophy this being has many names: the One, the Absolute, the Unconditioned etc.

Because we evolved to absorb one worldview from our culture according to our station and not deviate from it but signal adherence at all times, but also with some ability to empathize with others.
We usually automatically translate anything into our own worldview, so it isn't possible to express a different one in a few words, unless you appreciate both. Otherwise it takes many words, as much as the length of the New Testament to express the world view of the Apostles, and many people who call themselves Christians find St. Paul's writing difficult to understand, because there's so much to paper over.
In addtion, the neet Descartes, who claimed that God exists because his parents couldn't possibly have created him, is asserted to be a great philosopher for political reasons, and so is Hobbes, who hilarously tried to argue for traditionalism on individualistic grounds.

Because you need to explain plenty of things that are not normally explained by simplifying it.
e.g. OP is a faggot vs The original and first anonymous poster, who happens to have a grandiose likening to large male sexual organs, the seed of life that comes from the hitherto and the carriers of such seed that is the testicles, is a complete and absolute member of the minority group who always happen to play the victim in many of the current political issues solely because they just wanted to suck cocks all day and every day, and that is, the homosexual collectivist social group who continue to suck cocks and swallow gallons of semen worth 100 grams of proteins because they have a fetish for men and a strong likening to giving and receiving anal intercouse.
