Ethical monotheism originated—pace any claims of priority on behalf of Zoroastrianism[2]—within Judaism.[1][3][4][5] The concept is present in various other monotheistic religions, such as Zoroastrianism, Christianity, the Baháʼí Faith, Sikhism, and Islam. All of these monotheistic religions include the belief in one Supreme Being as the ultimate authority and creator of the universe.[6] In Christianity, God is worshipped as the Trinity or according to Nontrinitarian conceptions of God.[7] In monotheistic religions, other deities are variously considered to be false or demonic, and it is believed that any other gods cannot be compared to the one that they respectively regard as the only true God.[8][9][10][11]
