Hasn't enough time passed to prove that mankind cannot government himself successfully? Hasn't the devil more than been proved a liar and mankind is desperately in need of help.

Before this time many issues could not have been proved beyond any doubt.
Even a man said, on inventing the gattleing gun. "This will prevent war, because of this weapon war would be unthinkable. He was not alone, the man who made dynamite said the same thing. With the invent of nuclear weapons that could dstroy all life, it was used and dropped on Japan.
Showing no matter how destructive a weapon it would be used. Even thinking we could polute the whole earth with radiation and kill everyone. they did it.
Satan could have said: "if you allowed them to go on a little longer technology would hae solved the problems of the world, from famine to war.
Now we have shown technology has poluted the earth beyond repair. Rather than solve all mankinds problems.
They became part of the problem proving man kind is not capable of ruling themselves. Once for all time the issue is solved and we hopely can now look forward to Jesus Christ rule over the earth that will really solve all mankinds problems.

2Pe 3:8 But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day [is] with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.
2Pe 3:9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
2Pe 3:10 ¶ But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.

GOD made a Contract with Mankind Through Adam.
It was for 6,000 Years.
It is almost Up.
(Adam kicked GOD out of this Creation (legally) and let satan in (legally) that is why there has been so much hell.

Where do you get the idea that we can't govern ourselves successfully? Perhaps it was during the theocracies of the middle ages when people were brutally killed for not holding the religious view of the day.
Certainly you cannot be referring to the by-and-large successful secular governments of the world who prefer peace, while trying to subdue the theocratic governments that support religious based terrorirsm?
Please, get a clue.

whether god is responsible for mans continous idiocies is, i think, not the question.
Ideas like God, and the devil are insubstantial conclusions to a far greater problem, whether man has the social or communitative drive to solve his own problems.
You cannot blame the devil. Each man has his or her own personal demons. blame shifting is a key to our inability to govern ourselves.
Societel problems like greed, intolerance, malice are things that push us further from the dream of enlightened lives.

So what do you suggest God should do?
Come down and set up a despotism where he is the supreme ruler? Isn't it kinda like that already?
I vote we kick God out of office and vote for a more able leader.

A thousand years is like a day to God. Its only been 6 days for him
2 peter 3:8
But do not let this one {fact} escape your notice, beloved, that with the Lord one day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years like one day.

It is time for the return of the Christ and to take over rulership of the world. Enough time had to pass before he did this.
