You only have to look around the world's hotspots to realise that the more we interfere in someone's life the more complex the situation becomes and how quickly things can get out of hand due to meddling however well thought/intentioned out it might be, and most of it isn't that well thought out anyway.
So if you are an omniscient being you can see all the ramifications of interfering here and there.You can see what action will lead to another action and so forth..Sometimes the only real possible action is to take no action as being the way of preventing a worse situation from happening.
Then add to that the fact you have promised everyone the option of free choice, one can hardly go interfering at every opportunity or you are breaking your word.
Anyway maybe if there is a God he/she/it is just a scientist and we are his/her/it's petrie dish...
