The Issue Of The Best Of All Possible Worlds
Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz might have the best name in all of the history of science. He coined the term “theodicy” as well as the theory that this universe is the “best of all possible worlds”. Scott Christensen says while Leibniz was onto something, he limited God in a way that Scripture doesn’t. The issue of the best of all possible worlds is that it’s not forced upon God.
