Yes, but the problem of evil has thereby pushed you into an untenable position, psychologically speaking, since now the deity is alien to us, with bizarre motives and plans, rather than a comforting parental figure that we can easily understand. This is a theistic bait-and-switch tactic which the problem of evil exposes.

There's a contradiction between saying God is both all-good and ultimately mysterious.
