It can't be stupid since this is the best of all possible worlds

It's probably a jok.

But Candide (as the poem on the earthquake of Lisbon) was in respond to a theory of Liebnitz ... I don't remember all.... Buy a critic edition, and you'll understand the book....

But it clearly isn't.
There are millions of quantifiable ways this world could be better.

you can obviously see how this is the best of all possible worlds, because this is the best of all possible worlds

But things could clearly possibly be better.

>> No.6488137

>>6488130

if this wasn't the best of all possible worlds, it would be hard to see how things could be better.

Because it's so easy to tell how things could be better, this is the best of all possible worlds

>> No.6488139

One must imagine Candide happy.

That doesn't make sense.
If it was hard to see how things could get better we might be in a perfect world.

>> No.6488165

>>6488160

Things wouldn't be difficult in the best of all possible worlds. Thus, because it is easy, this is the best of all possible worlds.

>> No.6488168

>>6488165
But it is difficult to achieve.
When it is easy to see how something could be improved it is indicative of faults in said thing.

hence, best of all possible worlds
