The humanities were invented because the intelligent people of the Renaissance period grew tired of listening to stupid people. As a result, they came up with the idea to make the humanities legitimate "studies" in which people, in the most verbose possible way, list obvious, surface-level, truths of the universe and relay them back to one another as if they were sharing knowledge. All of the stupid people have been occupied since.
