monotheism
One-god belief system
Monotheism is the belief in a single god, as opposed to polytheism (belief in many gods) or atheism (belief in none).
Judaism, Christianity, and Islam are the major monotheistic religions.
The term also applies to philosophical positions holding that only one deity exists: Monotheism emerged gradually in ancient Israel.
