monotheism
(noun)
The belief in a single god; especially within an organized religion.
Examples of monotheism in the following topics:
-
Theism and Monotheism
- In contrast to monotheism, deism is the belief that at least one deity exists and created the world, but that the creator(s), though transcendent and supreme, does/do not alter the original plan for the universe.
-
Magic and Supernaturalism
- Religion and magic became conceptually separated with the development of western monotheism, where the distinction arose between supernatural events sanctioned by mainstream religious doctrine ("miracles") and mere magic rooted in folk belief or occult speculation.
