St. Agnes , the hospital where I gave birth to my children , was built by Catholics . Using military privledges , I had a historectomy(s) in the Washington , D.C. area in another hospital , built by Catholics . Here in Texas , I was admitted to Willowbrook Methodist Memorial Hospital . The religious folk can and do join together to work towards positive projects . I don't think we can draw a line and say all religious people are bad or just plain stupid . On the other hand , while we are proud to have gotten out from under the beliefs in the false God(s) bit , I also feel we ,as a group , can't claim to building many hospitals or other major good for the population in general good works .

All the atheists I know give of themselves to others on a daily basis. I myself am constantly mailing home made cookies to people all over the country who are going through hard times. And when we were experiencing are first covid spike, I spent hundreds of dollars and hours driving around delivering free masks to anyone in my tri county area that needed them. Delivering to assisted living homes, schools, and everywhere in between.
Pound for pound atheist are far more selfless than christians. The difference is we truly do our good deeds for humanity with out needing or wanting a plaque hung on the wall.
Can you be good with god?

Maybe or maybe not.
Can you be good with insanity? There is no god, so the question is absurd.
@Healthydoc70 “Can you be good without god?” is an oft repeated religious shibboleth that my comment was meant to satirize. Read it properly as “Can you be good without a belief in good?” Yes, of course you can.
