And if we are speaking of something made/concieved by a perfect being surely the thing should be beyond improvement?
Perhaps its ability to be imperfect is part of its ultimate perfection...especially if there is a process to go through to get there.

Quote:
Aye, but sometimes you don't want perfect.
This statement really reflects more on the human condition than on any perfection. We are fundamentally unstable beings and when we are stable we tend to get bored.

Nobody wants a friend or lover with no flaws.
Try me, specifically the second one. It should be something to inspire you to be better rather than something to make you bitter.

Quote:
perfection is boring.
I'm afraid I'd have to argue that no human being is really in a position to know because (as far as I know) no human being has ever been there.

Besides, if perfection is so boring, why is it that practically everybody is trying to better themselves in some way?
