This God created a situation in which, in order to survive, life forms must torture, kill, and eat other life forms. There's your all-good God at work.
Actually, it fits in well with a God who ordered the killing of all the inhabitants of Jerico (including babies) except the family of a prostitute who lied to the local authorities as to the whereabouts of Hebrew spies. I wonder why you don't think that is incompatible with the Christian "all-good God"?

its a big misunderstanding

My argument has nothing to do with the Bible.
Then where did you get the idea that God has to be all-good?

Most of your concern seemed to involve the Christian God. He is described in the Bible. Where else would you get accurate information as to His characteristics?
