All of that to say, when I was at the EN school of campus ministry, we read a book called The Universe Next Door by James Sire. It was so over my head and Elissa, my roommate at the school and I would read it and then meet with our other friend Joseph for him to tell us what we just read! (PS, I loved the school and all of the other books we read were wonderful and insightful, this one was just too intellectual for me!) :)
Anyway, the book talks about different worldviews. (Prepare yourself, I may butcher this, but I think you will get my point.) One of the worldviews we read about was Deism. The book describe this worldview like a pocket watch, that God created the world and then left us on our own, never to come down, or even care about us. Obviously this is not the way I view God, or the way God is!
Reading Gen 11 about the Tower of Babel made me think about this. The people were being prideful and God came down and confused their languages. God gives a spanking for the people's own good.
