He spoilt my irrational belief (10)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

polytheism

'belief' is the definition.
(polytheism is a kind of belief)

'he spoilt my irrational' is the wordplay.
'irrational' is an anagram indicator.
'he'+'spoilt'+'my'='hespoiltmy'
'hespoiltmy' is an anagram of 'POLYTHEISM'.

(Other definitions for polytheism that I've seen before include "Belief in more than one god" , "worshipping many gods" , "Worship of more than one god" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
