The Old Testament, to me, is an old law that had moral principles and worshipped a false God. Jesus put them on the right track, by sending the true message of the Lord, but also agreeing with some of the moral principles of the old law (10 commandments for example)
I dont know what the real God was doing, but his only direct interaction with humanity is sending Jesus to Earth, so you might also ask what he was doing at the time of the dinosaurs or what he is doing now, I DONT KNOW, because im not God.
Well it's interesting you now claim that yahwe didn't actually exist, because to quote you directly:
"Although i would not call Yahwe a "murdering desert God". He did give Moses the 10 Commandements, or stopped Abraham from sacrificing his son (thus discouraging human sacrifice). He was, at his time, the closest thing to the real God. But he was not Him, because the True God does not have a "chosen" people." End quote.
You are quite clearly stating here that he did exist.
It appears to me that you don't really know what you believe.
