No matter, whatever medium he uses that you put so much conviction in, it's the same problem. You're dead set on your version, so are others, for the exact same reason. You think they cannot find scripture verses to justify their actions? You can find scripture verses to justify anything if you're imaginative enough. It's called interpretation.
Again you're reading without comprehension, I stated the whole of scripture, a persons belief and action must conform to the whole of the scriptures. I use the whole of the scriptures most of the time, I'm sure that I fail at times but I'm not looking to justify what I think scripture says, I want to present it as God intends.

So now that I've explained it, They Are Not Listening, or they are pretending to be Christians for their own benefit and this last part is not what Christianity is about."
And the question still stands - why is God failing to help them interpret it?
Or, If you prefer:
Why is God making them understand?
Oh - and lets not employ the no true Scotsman - which is what you are trying to do.
I'm not employing the no true Scotsman. They either are not listening or they are trying to self satisfy, Christians need to learn the only true satisfaction comes from God. So, God doesn't fail, people choose not to learn the truth.

God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
