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?

I don't think so, when it serves a higher purpose which we are not aware of, or when He wants to, he certainly can and does, but he is privy to all the info that we are not, and so for us the divine intervention is not what we wish for on a daily basis, and in fact isn't what we call divine intervention, really a wish for our own intervention, thus cheapening the divine.
