monotheist

Single deity worshipper

A monotheist believes in a single god—the theological position held by Jews, Christians, Muslims, and others.

The term distinguishes believers in one deity from polytheists (who worship many) and atheists (who worship none).

As a monotheist, she found the Hindu pantheon fascinating but foreign to her understanding of the divine.
