Perfection in human terms
Atheism vs Religion - Another Perspective - Beliefnet Forums: "Perfection in human terms is rising above the common existence of people in one's society to teach better ways of relating with each other. It is usually a dangerous quest, as society generally is reluctant to change, especially if there is a God or gods involved. Gods of course deny any perfection associated with humans, as that would make humans better than Gods which are manifestly imperfect by any measure."

I am exceedingly careful when applying labels to anyone or anything. If you had a cardboard box and put a label on the box that read "BOX," you would have achieved the effect that occurs when one applies superlative and idealistic adjectives like "perfect" or "absolute" to things or entities. IMHO, perfect, perfection, imperfect and imperfection should be avoided when discussing any lifeform. Apply those terms to any God, god or supernatural phenomenon and they are just as meaningless.
