Because Doctor Pangloss said it is. (consult Voltaire for further information). because God which is all-powerful and all-knowing always act optimal otherwise it contradict of His being God.

This is not the "best possible world" but the world as we have it. The "best possible world" would be Utopia, like the Garden of Eden, where everyone lived together in harmony with no work and all the food you can eat. From a religious point of view, God gave us the best possible world, but Man sinned and was banished from "that world" and now has to earn his way into the really "best possible environment: heaven."

The belief that this is the best possible world is subjective and can vary among individuals. Some may see the world as the best because of the opportunities and experiences it offers, while others may see room for improvement in areas such as suffering, inequality, and conflict. Overall, the perspective of the world being the best possible one is a personal interpretation shaped by individual values and experiences.
