I meant 'worlds as in worlds as they exist and as they develop over time' like real universes, the place of beings within them and how most worlds wouldn't exist if perfection were the goal. What I should have said was this: If the world were in perfect harmony then there would be no point in living in it because imperfection provides meaning to choice and if there were a perfect way to live then we wouldn't have that choice as things would have to work in an ideal way and thus rob us of all the possibilities that only living the imperfect majority of lives would entail. The only reason we need exist is that so we can decide between multiple imperfect situations to paint an unideal picture in order to provide one of many situations that must exist simply to add one more less than ideal addition to the total spectrum of possibilities. If everything worked out perfectly, then the majority of worlds would not exist. If there were a convenient solution to most of our problems then there would be no need for our reality to play them out and give the paths we take in this universe direction. I don't know if I stated that as well as I could have, and the idea is harder to explain than I realized but to bottom line it: Most possible universes are bad to varying degrees and our choice between imperfect situations gives our lives a sort of purpose that a perfect universe with choices that worked well for everybody wouldn't have. Pick one section and then I can address one thing at a time. Our choices are made purposeful through the imperfections of our reality where many decisions have consequences where each choice is less than ideal. If our choices had no imperfect consequences then why make them at all? You could just decide everything through the flip of a coin and there would be no need to weigh pros and cons in a decision making process. Start there.
