   This is exactly the crux of it.  And later we know from the Gospels that   
   even some of Jesus' disciples didn't know Who exactly Jesus was.  ;)   
   It does seem to me that all who worship God would agree on at least some   
   attributes- The Form of Good being a starting point, other nouns and   
   adjectives being born from that concept.
