According to the bible only God can be good because the bible says something to the extent of "none are good but the Lord" or something like that. What is the precise meaning of God's goodness? What traits and characteristics make him good?
Remade the thread since my last one was derailed with trolling

Re: What does it mean to be good
You have history here that shows that you are not interested in the answer. Rather, you are interested in telling us how evil, violent and petty God is.

If they had a social gospel in the days of the prodigal son, somebody would have given him a bed and a sandwich and he never would have gone home.

MAGSolo,
God IS Goodness. If you want to understand, chew on this. Once you understand divine simplicity, come back and discuss.
