I thought it might be fun to keep track of all the groups that Voltaire rags on in Candide. If you come up with any others, feel free to add 'em. Here's what I can think of off the top of my head: optimists, nobility, inquisitors, the clergy in general, jews, philosophers, scientists.

Like I said, you guys are free to add. It's almost like nobody can escape the fury of his satire!

Good--why don't you set up a page on the Wiki with this information. There must be a ton of good Voltaire sites.
 
what about women.
 
That works. I'll add it too the wiki in case it's not already added.
