I feel you. I really do. To ME, it seems like God protected the world up until about 1992...
...but that's because 1992 was the year I turned 14 and started really thinking about the s**t that was going on all around us.
I'll tell you the conclusion I've come to.
[God] is STILL protecting the world. [God] keeps sending wake-up calls, and advice, and guidance, and all stuff like that.
We don't listen. We don't learn.
And I'm nobody to judge. [God] or Verified Emissaries Thereof have given me little signs to mark the path I should walk, and little signs to tell me when I'm off it... And bigger signs... And BIGGER signs... And I've still frigged my own walk up because I did not hear, did not listen, did not understand through my own human opinions, and therefore did not heed.
We. Just. Don't. Learn. And sooner or later, the consequences of our actions pile up and the most loving thing [God] can legitimately do is reboot the world before we turn it into Hell.

Your words could have been written post Noah, and God did reboot the world if you believe in that fairy tale and the reboot just created the same type of human.
That says that we are what we are and cannot stop being human.
I do agree that we are not learning at a decent pace but that is because of our poor education systems and nothing but political will as the main culprit.
Citizens, like religious sheeple, ar dumbed down by governments because, like sheeple, brain dead sheepish citizens are easier to control and manipulate than an intelligent voting public.
Intelligent free thinkers are so demanding, in terms of quality leadership, that creating sheeple is a full time job for immoral religions and governments which are by and large controlled by our oligarchs.
Money talks.
