Quite the opposite, really. I simply refuse to put them on a pedestal by making arguments like you did saying, essentially, “philosophers have been saying this is complicated for hundreds of years, therefore it must be”. Which, as other have stated, is not a logical argument but a faith based one. It’s really quite the same as my friends HS theology class, in which a correct answer to “what evidence do we have of the existence of god” was “thousands of years of belief and study by renowned theologians”, aka. bullshit.
