"If God is One, and if there can be no other God, there can be no idea of God"

- Leo Strauss

About this Quote

Leo Strauss, a German-American political theorist, is presenting a complex concept in this quote. He suggests that if God is deemed a particular entity which no other entity can be considered God or god-like, then the really concept of God ends up being non-existent. This indicates that the concept of God heavily relies on the plurality or the presence of multiple gods or supernatural forces. Without numerous gods, there would be no point of contrast or contrast, and the concept of God would disappear. Strauss challenges the commonly held belief that God should be a single entity and highlights the value of thinking about the existence of multiple religious beliefs and practices.
