Paragraph:
     Monism is a term that refers to the existence of only one surpreme being. Monism reminds me of the term monotheism, which is also the belief in one surpreme being, or God. I agree with this term also. The reason why I believe there is only one surpreme being is not only because of my religion, but because I feel God is too special to have more than one. It's kind of the same principle of the pope. There is only one pope, but they change which is different than God.
