God's good wouldn’t be our good. "Good" cannot exist without a defined point of view. Even if God was awesome, he'd still have his own agenda and point of view. It might be good from many perspectives for no one to die or exploit others, but most people think harming those weaker than themselves for their own benefit is good. Capitalism and imperialism are good if you want to exploit others for selfish gain.

God would only be good if they were subservient to humanity rather than our "lord." No leader deserves respect beyond what we choose to give them based on how well they serve our interests.
