Judging the righteousness of God, is an impossible task from the standpoint of being his children. Just like our own judgment of parents when we were children. We might have made statemets such as "I hate you", or that's not fair" etc, but as we grew older we began to understand what our poor parents were up against. In the case of God, I'd like to think that he might need some evidence of wrong doing in order to properly and legally judge the perpetrators of things he has more than suggested we not engage in.

If God were to intervene at every misstep of man, we would be living in the leftist hell called Nirvana, or Utopia, without a mind of our own, prisonors in the Devils world where liberty of man is a dream unatainable. No, the righteous God has it right, as he did not intervene in the death of his own son, so he chooses to allow man his liberty to do as he wishes for good or evil, that he might judge a righteous judgment, that not one of us will be able to say life isn't fair.

Good point. But it sort of argues against any hope of "divine intervention", doesn't it?
