So, if God is supposed to be omniscient, omnipotent and omnipresent, how did he screw up so much that he had to create an entirely new authoritative text?

The bible is written by man.

But it's supposed to be the word of God. The fact of the matter is, the Bible promotes violence just like the Quran. Also, the claim that the Old Testament doesn't count makes no sense when in the New Testament there are references towards fulfilling the Old Testament:

Matthew 5:17 Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them.

5:18 I tell you the truth, until heaven and earth disappear, not the smallest letter, not the least stroke of a pen, will by any means disappear from the Law until everything is accomplished.

5:19 Anyone who breaks one of the least of these commandments and teaches others to do the same will be called least in the kingdom of heaven, but whoever practices and teaches these commands will be called great in the kingdom of heaven.
