Is there any God that a theist rejects?

Muslims hold that they are the same, Christians disagree. Non trinitarian christians, such as Mormons, Jehovah's witnesses etc vehemently disagree. I've had discussions with many. Hindus never, I don't know why, as I know a few. The root idea I'd the same for all faiths IMO, it's just the fine points which separate gods. And enlightenment without gods still touches upon the same subject matter: purpose.

Well, Middle Eastern Christians agree with the Muslims that the word for God is 'Allah'. If you're going to reject Allah as being the same God despite being Abrahamic due to differences in interpretation, you may as well throw out the Jewish God too, because he doesn't have much in common with the NT one.
