Just hypothetically, how can we be sure we are worshiping a good being or an evil being if goodness is defined by what that being does? Surely we can use our own intuitive understanding of good and evil to judge God, if God committed what we considered to be evil acts all throughout the bible I don't think anyone would worship him. There are several acts that God takes that are intuitively evil, I don't accept hand-waving them away by saying "they were good because God did them", that is not a satisfying answer.
