That seems to be quite the overstatement but how is that even relevant? People are fallible.
I asked three children to describe their father to me, none of their descriptions were identical ergo their father does not exist. Non-sequitur.

All of the major Christian confessions of faith define God rather explicitly.

No, I am not surprised at all.

In all seriousness that definition doesn't seem to stand up to scrutiny as beyond those basic attributes, the properties of god are in a state of flux and differ depending on whom I speak with.
Care to elaborate? I see no problem with God being defined as the Supreme Being who created the Universe. The Christian God has more attributes but I think it is fair to say that any supreme being that created the Universe would fit the definition of being a god.
