Monotheism is the belief of biblical Christianity.
Deism emerged in the Age of Enlightenment and is the belief of philosophers like John Locke. It seems to be most like the functional worldview of nominal Christians, combined with a version of Existentialism.
Charles Darwin must be the most significant champion of Naturalism, which is now the prevailing narrative in modern science.
I think Existentialism is the predominant belief of popular culture and media because people operate in a way of “authenticating themselves” and embracing their personal “truth.” Unfortunately I think nominal, western Christianity is a functionally a hybrid of Deism and Existentialism.
Pantheism is represented in movies like Avatar. It has become popular in the West through fads like Yoga and meditation. -

Monotheism: Jim Elliot in the book written about his life and death “Through The Gates Of Splendor” was a Christian martyr and thus a monotheist.
Deism: Thomas Jefferson indicated beliefs that line up with Deism.
Naturalism: Charles Darwin, a large influence in the Naturalism movement.
Existentialism: Many pop culture figures in the world, like Miley Cyrus, believe in and publicly share about “living your own truth” which is very much an Existentialist belief where morals are what make your existence matter, as well as purpose being what you say that it is.
Pantheism: Ralph Waldo Emerson led the Transcendentalist movement in the mid-19th century.
