We can use possible worlds semantics to show how vacuous the notion is.
Take two possible worlds.
World A is as Acro asserts this world is. Where god and good are synonymous and the holocaust is not compatible or typifying of the god/good.
World B is as Acro asserts this world is. Where god and good are synonymous, but the holocaust -is- compatible with god/good.
As we can see, if god and good are synonymous, the character of the god determines the moral designation. These sorts of rationalizations always trip over the bastard god possibility.
