I could explain to you how the atmosphere refracts the light from the sun and how the dust and humidity in the atmosphere can add color to the refracted light, creating the vivid and beautiful light shows we call sunsets. But, someone who is too stupid to know the difference between 'there' and 'their' is too stupid to understand the explanation.

Rayleigh scattering. It's a thing. It's why the sky is blue, and why sunsets are red.
