Monolatrism
From Open Encyclopedia
Monolatrism forms a type of polytheism. Its adherents believe that many gods do exist, but these gods can exert their power only on those who worship them. Thus, a monolatrist may believe in the reality of both the Egyptian gods and the Ugaritic Pantheon, but sees him or herself as a member of only one of these religions. The gods that he/she worships and feels membership with can affect his/her life, but the other gods cannot.
