Explanation:
/the'os/ ("th" pronounced as in "theatre")

Theos
Theism, from the Greek word theos, meaning god, is a belief in a god, or gods. Theism takes many forms: monotheism is the belief that there is only one God (although monotheists often disagree about just Who that one God is); polytheism, or pantheism, is a belief that there are many gods (which can include monolatry - a belief that one god is supreme over "all the rest"); atheism is the belief that there is no God (although many atheists tend to revere science and popular scientists, who merely study and try to understand God's natural laws).
