asaris-- You bring up some valid points, but what Leibniz tried to say in his philosophy is that we don't know the optimal number of horses or whether asians are better than no asians. We have to trust that God has made everything out to be as good as possible, because God is good. What this means is that the number of horses we have now IS the number optimal for the greatest good and that having both asians and Jones is also optimal.
wilbjammin-- Hit. Nail. Head. Well stated, I had never looked at Candide quite like that and now that i think about it, I have to agree with you wholeheartedly.
