Genesis 11:1-9 proves you wrong. God is NOT determined to see that man is left alone to reach his potential. God actually expresses alarm that man might do so: v6 " The Lord said, “If as one people speaking the same language they have begun to do this, then nothing they plan to do will be impossible for them." And then God takes action to permanently cripple man's future attempts at progress: "7 Come, let us go down and confuse their language so they will not understand each other.” 8 So the Lord scattered them from there over all the earth, and they stopped building the city. 9 That is why it was called Babel—because there the Lord confused the language of the whole world. From there the Lord scattered them over the face of the whole earth."
Go ahead and stick with your "God allows evil because since Eden he has been practicing a 'hands off' policy towards man to prove (to somebody?) that his way is best." Just don't pretend the Bible actually gives any support to that.
AT THE TIME OF BABEL... MAN WAS IGNORING GOD'S COMMAND TO SPREAD OVER THE ENTIRE EARTH... They were just "collecting" in Babel... God acted to ensure that Man would spread out. ONCE AGAIN - I NEVER SAID THAT GOD WOULDN'T ACT TO FURTHER HIS PURPOSE OR THE STORY. Jesus Christ, you want to keep having these discussions LEARN HOW TO READ, dipshit... Having to repeat the same thing over and over to you as you furrow your brow in some vain attempt to understand gets a little boring.
