Closer to perfection, or not?

If something is capable of making mistakes, does that make them closer to perfection, or further from it?

Based on what I consider perfection to be... I think that it would be further away.

I'm afraid I can't answer this poll, but do have an oppinion on it. I don't beleive in perfection. Everything and everyone is how it/they is/are. Perfection is an unrealistic goal because there's no definate way to tell if something is perfect. You could be a bridge maker and say "these blueprints are perfect" but that's speculation based off other blueprints you've seen. Then a question might arise, "well it's a functioning bridge isn't it?" I'm sure it is, but just because it functions doesn't make it perfect either. Then take a performace in a theater. The actors can say all the right lines at the right tones with the right motions at the right times, but I wouldn't consider their performance perfect because they simply projected the writers story flawlessly. The spectrum of perfection is rediculous, my baby girl has been called perfect, and though she is quite beautiful, I do not think she is perfect. She is simply ..her. Eve is Eve.

And after typing this out, I decided to look up the dictionary's definition of perfect. There... are 22 difinitions for perfect. And in those 22 definitions it does make me think that it is posible to have a perfect something. But I'm still umnoved because most of the definitions pertain to man-made things or principles (language, music, building, etc). Keep viewing your creations as perfect mankind.
