This theory proposes that monotheism, the belief in one God, predates polytheism, the belief in multiple gods. The founding of the theory of original monotheism is strongly associated with the works of scholars such as Wilhelm Schmidt, a German anthropologist and philologist who developed the theory in the early 20th century. Schmidt argued that primitive human societies began with a belief in a singular, all-powerful deity and that polytheism emerged later as a deviation from this original monotheistic belief. [1] The importance of the theory lies in its attempt to understand the historical development of religious beliefs and to explore the possibility that monotheism is an early and foundational aspect of human spirituality. Corduan explains that, “there are two other sources that can provide evidence for an original monotheism: early scriptures of religions with roots in the ancient world and the anthropological method, the very means by which scholars had attempted to demonstrate an evolution of religion.” [2] For instance, he explains that scholars point to certain commonalities in their beliefs about creation that can be found in various societies. These common elements include the existence of a high god or a sky deity associated with the creation of the world and the establishment of moral order. The shared features in these beliefs are seen as evidence of a potential original monotheistic belief system.
