Why he chose men (remember he was sexist), If he had his angels delivering the message (they are plentiful) every now and then, surely everybody would have believed in him.

I think the real issue is sin. God walked with Adam everyday in the Garden of Eden. Adam new that God existed. He knew that God created him. Yet, Adam knowing all this, sinned against God by doing something that God said was forbidden. Even if God revealed Himself to everyone there would still be those who would not submit because they would choose the love of their sin over God. God requires faith to please Him because that shows that the person who believes has chosen God over their sin. Faith is very important.

God always communicate with us but almost non of us could understand and hear the message from God as we dont have a CLEAN heart whereas HEART is like an antenna or like a receiver to receive a SIGNAL from God.
Therefore Angel was sent to the chosen among us, the one that can SEE and HEAR an Angel.
Another problem is not many of us could understand the LANGUAGE of an Angel and all these is still relate to the condition of our HEART.
Therefore Bible describe this as follow :
Those who see but they DON'T UNDERSTAND, Those who hear but they DID NOT GET IT.
Let us put in this way..... Why we could understand our LOVER more and why we not fully understand those we don't love?

God spoke to Adam, Enoch, Noah, Jod, Abraham, Jacob and Moses personally. There were a lot more.
Lot was helped by an angel to escape Sodom and Gomorrah.
Daniel was instructed by an angel.
God only speaks to people who believes in Him, and by the way He already spoke but you don't want to listen to Written Word.
There were prophetess in the Bible.
You can read how Moses spoke to God. Please try to read the Bible first.

Are you kidding me? People would always be able to find excuses not to believe. How do you know s/he didn't deliver it personally? Just because it wasn't to you or in the form that you expect it, doesn't mean it never happened. God doesn't have to "prove" anything to us.

You have to have a channel that the ones you are communicating to understand. As we go higher up on the spiritual tiers, there is so much information it is mind staggering. We get the condensed version and enough information to suit our understanding of things. This applies to any spiritual communication.

John 12:37
37 Even after Jesus had done all these miraculous signs in their presence, they still would not believe in him.
When Jesus performed many miracles, not all still believed in Him, so no, performing miracles and signs do not guarantee that people will believe. This is where faith comes in.

Ultimately, "God" delivers the "message" through the interpretations of the preachers.
Nice work if you can get it!

God is God, not an entertainer. He's not interested in performing tricks to please man. He gave us all the free will to believe or not believe in Him. He doesn't want to force us to believe in Him, but instead requires that we have faith in Him despite the fact that we have no scientific proof.

Good point, maybe he doesn't like to repeat himself to every generation and if you don't know the truth you don't have his spirit.
