Sam is the only one to answer the question "perfectly." Perfection cannot be attained by humans. Perfection is only found in such concepts as mathmatics. For instance, 3 is perfectly equal to 3. The only other perfection can be found in God.

Yes but it is often hard to grasp ... such as the perfection found in many mathematical equations. Perfection can only be "cold and hard" and it is never "soft and cuddly".

Perfection is only possible in God. He is the measure of all that is good. It is impossible for a human to be perfect, because we are physical beings and have limitations. Perfection can know no bounds.
and for the atheists out there, "The Good" is perfection and the measure of all that is good and perfect.

In face, it's actually a mask you can put over your own face and see how close (or far off you are.) to the standard of perfection developed by the Greeks. It is called the Golden Mean. However only very few people measure up and actually fit into the mask even of those who believe they are actually perfect, most are not.

I'd say perfection is impossible for humans to attain. But it should be striven for - as long as you realize that you'll never achieve it and can be satisfied with doing your best.
But then, maybe I'm making a perfect fool of myself.

To call someone/something perfect is to loose the meaning of perfection. Perfection is by definition unreachable. Yes.. even nothing can't be perfect.

If a person tries to be perfect they will go insane. Look at celebrities. They're on their way to crazy land. I accept the fact that everyone makes mistakes.

There is no set definition for perfection, it is like beauty. We are only as perfect as the society we live in perceive us to be.

Until we see the perfect one we cannot be perfect.

I don't believe in perfection. It depends on a person's point of view, and it's not an absolute turth, so nope.
