Leibniz - Best of all Possible Worlds Argument (Explained and Debated)

Join George and John as they discuss and debate different philosophical ideas, today they will be looking into the works of Gottfried Leibniz and his best of all possible worlds argument as a solution to the problem of evil.

The problem of evil is a major problem for theists as there appears to be an inconsistency in the exists of an all powerful, all loving, all knowing God and the existence of evil and suffering. However the 17th Century philosopher Leibniz argued that even with all the evil and suffering this world is in fact the best possible world that God could have created, and so the problem of evil is not in fact a problem for theists.

Watch as the theory is explained and debated.
