Not only is God necessary for humans to be good, but so are his Messengers and Prophets.

The assumption that a deity is required for humans to act ethically is so old and tired. I act ethically and I've been an atheist for as long as I thought about the question as a pre-teen!
If you need an all-powerful deity to scare you into acting ethically, you have way more problems than you realize, and your superstitions aren't really going to help you with that.
I came to a fork in the road, and I took it!

Almost everyone including the most evil people on earth believe themselves to be good. Everyone acts according to standards they impose on themselves. However, to be good, a connection to God and rope from him is necessary.
