You don't get to define what it means to be all-good while denying that there is any connection to the all-good because there is no all good, you make an imaginary sky which is the highest ultimate good, and you then define how it would be, create the world, and what it will, and say you see we proven such a being cannot exist, by a connection we don't have with him but just have made up.
Well sure, a good God can exist if "good" can include a god that allows rape, bestiality, torture, murder, starving children and child molestation to go on in the world. You can call a God that would allow that "good" if you like but you may as well call a shovel a "fork", a donkey a "spade" and a Muslim "someone who rejects Islam and doesn't believe in Allah at all." while you're at it.
These words already have meanings. And merely defining the word "good" in such a way that it includes allowing the most horrific things.... well that's, that's just.... that's just the same old utterly pathetic mental gymnastics that theists always do.
