Java

We've recently got some java lessons and there's one thing I don't get. Why do you stuff the main method into a class that's got nothing to do with it? It does not even have access to the classes methods and functions, it has to create an object of the class it's in. WHY?
Who fails? The teacher, java or me?

My main reason for disliking Java is the library. Can it possibly get any more verbose and arcane? It's like the Second System effect, just missing the first (or could C++ fill those shoes?).
