Ademonist

/ˌeɪdɪˈmoʊnɪst/ noun

Definition

A person who denies the existence of demons or evil spirits, or rejects demonological beliefs.

Etymology

From Greek 'a-' (without) and 'daimon' (demon/spirit), plus '-ist' (believer/practitioner). The term describes someone who explicitly denies demons rather than simply being non-religious.

Kelly Says

Ademonists in medieval times were actually pretty brave—they were going against the common belief that demons were everywhere causing mischief and illness!
