 However, unlike Plantinga and Wolterstorff, Strauss’s project is not to make rational arguments for God’s revelation but only to suggest that such arguments are in theory possible. Because Strauss clearly is not interested in offering a constructive theology, some interpreters have concluded that, despite appearances to the contrary, he did not really take the possibility of revelation seriously. Perhaps most notably, the eminent Strauss scholar, Heinrich Meier, maintains that Strauss purposely overstates the problem posed by revelation for philosophy in order to inspire philosophical readers in their quest for the philosophical life. Meier further understands the theologico-political problem in terms of what he claims is Strauss’s life-long effort to create a philosophical school. Meier’s basic contention is that the quarrel between revelation and philosophy as Strauss describes it leaves the careful reader many opportunities to consider whether revelation really does constitute the refutation of philosophy and to realize that philosophy does in fact have philosophical and moral resources from which to respond to revelation.
