If one defines God as "that which sustains the cosmos", one could imagine that such a thing is above criticism. Why? Because it isn't a "person", and it doesn't "care", and it doesn't have anything to do with your personal struggles. Its business is existence itself, not your self-absorbed life.
It would be like asking if a mountain is above criticism. Yup, it is, even if you'd like the top to be a bit more of a peak.
As for there being a god who is the "one truly objectively good thing in a person's life", that's utter fantasy. I'm the best thing in your life by pointing that out to you. You're welcome.
