Believing in one God means believing in truth, believing in one set of LAWS prescribed in Quran which benefits all Humanity, believing in one God doesn't mean only Verbal acceptance and deeds according to own Wishes. Polytheist also mean verbally declaring one God but actually practicing two sets of LAwas which divides humanity, suppress the rights of the poor and creates economic Imbalance in the Society. Quran referes to them as Kafirun (Rejectors of Truth), Zalimun (oppressors) and Munafiqeen (Hypocrites). Rejectors of Truth could be also be in so called Muslims and non Muslims.
Believing in One GOD means following one of set of Universal Laws which benefits all Humanity irrespective of Caste, creed, culture, nationality, race etc will unite Humanity and Bring Peace. Not believing in One GOD and selfish laws means divisions of Humanity in terms of Nationality, Caste, Creed Culture, Race, economy, hatred, wars and destruction of Humanity.
Please don't conclude your understanding on Quranic translations done by some individuals but learn Arabic and understand the meanings of Kafirun, Zalimun, Munafiqeen etc prevalent at the time of Quranic revelations and it is available in well known Arabic dictionaries. Today's Quranic Translations are done under the influence of Culture, capitalist etc which doesn't reflect the actual meaning but conflicts.
