I guess you completely ignored everything I said.

No, I've read everything you've written in this thread.
Unfortunately, what you personally believe and what is believed by the 2 billion other Christians in the world are not always the same thing. Some branches of Christianity believe that God does not interfere with the affairs of humans while others believe that God is omnipotent and causes miracles. Some believe that the Bible is 100% historical fact, while others believe all or parts of it are a metaphor and not an accurate retelling of history.

Its always nice to talk about this with people who actually can go beyond bashing 'god' by referring to OT passages.

Ok, how about some NT stuff then. When Jesus raised Lazarus from the dead or turned water into wine or cured lepers or died on the cross and returned to life three days later, was that not God using his powers and directly interfering down here?
It's not just the OT but also the NT as well where God frequently interacts with humans. So when exactly did God cease doing that and become nothing more than a passive creator?
