Not biblically no. I can only offer speculation, based on the other times God altered the course of man/the soceities Man builds for himself.

Quote:God knows everything and is all powerful, so how can the collaborative efforts of man possibly concern him?
It is Because God knows everything, He makes these course corrections that will allow for the outcome coinsides with His will. Every other time God has influenced or changed the course of man it is to ensure that the Plan of salvation is perserved. (He protects the Jews and more so the line of Christ's fore Fathers.)

Quote: Also, if man was attempting to build a tower to heaven, and God knew that they would never make it, wouldn't it make more sense to just let them fail and see the folly of their ways?
When has 'failure' ever stopped us? How many times did we fail before we went to the moon? How many times did we fail before we broke the sound barrier? Again, the purpose was not to stop man from doing these things at all, (witnessed by all of the pictures left by other posters in this thread) it was to put us off a while. (persumably to ensure the plan of salvation would happen the way it did.)
