Nontheism
Definition of Nontheism as it relates to Religions, Agnosticism, Polytheism
"Nontheism" under "Polytheism," within the hierarchy of "Religions/Agnosticism/Polytheism," refers to the belief in the absence of a god or gods in religious systems. It is characterized by a lack of belief in deities, contrasting with polytheistic beliefs that include multiple gods and goddesses. Nontheism can also intersect with agnosticism, where individuals claim neither faith nor disbelief in a higher power due to lack of evidence. This belief system emphasizes personal autonomy, reason, and ethics, rather than divine authority or intervention.
