Your arm waving won't help, natural and
science make an oxymoron.

The only reason people think science is synthetic
is because they were told some vague reasoning
about paradoxes and the limitations of sense,
Why don't monkeys have any science?

Well, how did the monkies come up with the Complete Works of Shakespeare
then?
Monkeys cannot speak very well.

Possibly you could teach a gorilla to use a printing press, but I have
doubts about their possibility to write, if the gorilla cannot speak.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infinite_monkey_theorem
look at the picture of a monkey who cannot speak but can type...
But that idea is based upon randomness, while speaking means actually the opposite.
Most humans think, that apes could not produce non-random expressions.
But that ain't the case.
In fact monkeys are quite clever beasts and can produce very sophisticated things with their minds.
What they can't do, however, that is actually speaking, because they don't have the organs to produce these specific sounds we use in language.
But monkeys can actually 'speak' by other means, like with hand signs or by pointing at signs on a computer screen.
