An interesting explanation of why God would place us in an indifferent universe came to me by way of a Krishna devotee: in the spiritual reality, the hereafter, the only possible relationship with God is one of servitude. But you, me, everyone here, didn't want to serve, we wanted to be our own master. So we got sent here, where there is no God we can detect, and we get to play at being our own lord. But it also means God is not interferring, and we experience what an absence of God means.

I thought this was interesting, even if he couldn't quite convince me that Krishna specifically is the supreme God.
