The combination of one monster soul and one human soul allows a single person to cross the barrier. If he wanted to destroy the barrier, he would need to kill one human, absorb its soul, cross the barrier, then kill 6 more humans on the Surface so he could return. He didn't want to become God. He just wanted the monsters to have hope that they might one day escape, since they'd lost all hope once Chara and Asriel died. His own hope was that no human would ever fall into the Underground so that he would never have to hurt them.

Is he a good person? Not really. I wouldn't call him bad, either, though. Watch how he fights he even does not want to watch you die he also have to kill the children because he has to do it for his monsters so he is good
