On an intellectual level, I allow that your hypothesis is a plausible explanation. But as with the "God is passive" theory, I cannot accept it either. It doesn't seem consistent to me, especially in light of this (apocryphal?) story of McKay and his petitioning the Lord on the subject.
Is it possible that God is passionately interested in the affairs of men and still leaves them in the hands of His children? I believe many of us are passionately interested in sports, for example, but I don't recall any of you rushing to the field to help John Beck when Utah had the lead.
