Divinity if it exists at all needs to come about through simplicity. Divinity needs an explanation.

Again, that is simply ignoring completely what divine simplicity means. Divine simplicity means that essence and existence (or, essence and actuality/energy) are completely equal; that God is pure actuality. It means that God in his simple essence is non-composite, singular, and that all his attributes are equal to the same fact of his being. Since complexity is composition, God is therefore complete simple.
The people who are the most bigoted are the people who have no convictions at all.
