The thinking is that in order for humans to grow mentally/spiritually they must learn how to protect themselves and others from evil, so God doesn't intervene every time evil happens including The Bible being corrupted. It's the only way for people to reach their potential.
You may think of it as intervention through nonintervention.
The thinking is that God has arranged for the necessary things like food, water, clothing and so on, so not completely abandoned us. If we choose to do good we grow mentally/spiritually.
You've brought up this "tampered with the word of god nonsense" a number* of times now, but have failed to give any kind of a response to my query every time I ask it of you. It is very relevant to what you are trying to establish.
Hopefully what I put above was some help to you.

Acknowledged.
Constable Dorfl, you may look at my answers above.
Your answer makes no sense. You are alleging the perfect being would allow a cack handed hatchet job of his message in order to allow us become better people? Could god not create us as better people, or could he not make it that his message, unaduterated, would suffice?
Your answer just raises a larger question, why is your god so small?
