Since all the premises are right, then Leibniz concluded, "The universe that God chose to exist is the best of all possible worlds".[1] It would overall be a contradiction to his good and perfect nature, and so the universe that God has chosen to create can only be the best of all possible worlds.[12] While Leibniz argued that suffering is good because it incites human will, critics argue that the degree of suffering is too severe to justify belief that God has created the "best of all possible worlds".	./cache/en-wikipedia-org-4358.html	./txt/en-wikipedia-org-4358.txt
