It Will Continue...

As I mention in my previous blog entries, Candide suffers of an accident but  a woman saved him. All this happened in a boat with a gigantic storm overtakes them. In this boat Jaques died because the sailor wouldn't help him. When the ship sank the only one the survived were the sailor, Pangloss, and the sailor. They are able to reach Lisbon, who just had experienced an earthhquake. When they get to Lisbon something that happens withs Pangloss. He is judged because according to the people an optimist can not believe in original sin.

In Lina Merizalde's blog she talks about the difference how religion and philosophy can be judged and by which parameters you can make decisions. In her blog she says how philosophy and religion have never worked well together, and she's totally right. How she say's in the beginning of her blog entry: "Unlike philosophy, which depends on the thinker, religion is always regulated by the same dogmas. Many people now find themselves being against religion because they see no sense in depending on a force they have no proof exists." 


In Pangloss scene the Catholic Inquisitor claims that everything is not for the best. Obviously him being a philosopher attempts to defend his theory. He can't and won't depend in a force but in ideas. The way philosophers can think things and the do them can make no sense, but they are relying on themselves in a force, for example God, that you don't really knows exist. This only proves one thing that Lina already said mixing philosophy and religion its almost like mixing chocolate and ketchup they both might be delicious, but they dont go well together.
