After all, god is supposed to be "all powerful" and that does not seem to be too large a task for a god.
The basics are clearly expressed so that anyone can understand. But the Bible is also rich and complex enough for a lifetime of study. If it were written like a Dick and Jane book you'd complain it was to simple since surely God could have written something more deep for adults. If it was only complex then you'd complain that God the Word is too esoteric. There's no pleasing the objections of atheists like you.
