It doesn't mean he wants us to forever be ignorant. Just keep us ignorant until we are ready for him.
Sometimes i wonder if we are entities in a computer program like sim city... The characters in sim city don't have a clue about the world beyond theirs...
Then I suppose God would be the computer engineer who created the software... I dunno
The analogy would be complete once you realize that God is within the program and the program is part of God too.
To me there is no meaningful distinction between the totality of existence containing infinite minds and those minds just being the thoughts of a much larger mind that we call God.

They can't. Just means God doesn't want some people to believe or at least not until they're ready. If atheists exist it's because God wants it. Only what God wants can happen.
