I assume he made them with an empty stomach.

So they ate.

Now, as soon as the food was digested it began to change the chemical compositions of their bodies, proteins were added, etc.

Since perfection is a static state, and to alter it is to reduce its "perfectness" - can we say that as soon as Adam digested his food he no longer posessed a perfect body since his body was no longer exactly the one God had given him?

I think Mike G is winning so far, his answer makes the most logical sense.

GEMELLI: Though you know a priori when you see it, please note that I am talking about Adam having a perfect body, not questioning God's ability to create it.

No wonder Carol M is so angry at my question, look at her profile:

I love the Lord and am in His service every day, sharing the word of God with others and try to introduce those who do not know Jesus as their savior to Him, if they want to know Him that way.
God bless you

Is perfection found in the ability to perform a function or in the performance of the function itself?

IF the former than you may be accurate. If the latter perfection was not achieved until all potential functions were being performed.

I'll answer it as a hypothetical. Adam was still perfect because God created him with a digestive system to use the food he ate. Necessity is perfection.

even as Adam and Eve were created ideal, they nevertheless had freewill to come back to a call on even with they needed. They were both created spiritually ideal, yet no longer spiritually mature. it quite is evidence that we've freewill, because they "chosen" to eat the fruit; which God suggested do not eat. authentic, God can not do some thing imperfect, yet guy can. Romans 10:8-10 is how all and sundry might want to be born again.

The body has little to do with perfection, it is the state of the eternal soul of which the body is only a part.

Eating was not what made Adam imperfect. Disobeying God and then hiding from God were Adam's sins that resulted in the imperfection.

Creating the opportunity for imperfection, or even the idea of imperfection makes "GOD", logically, imperfect. who but an imperfect being would need the word perfect if he did not also create imperfection? What else but an Evil being could "Create" evil? Religions don't stand up to the slightest wind of reason. they wilt in the light of logic.

If his body was made to digest food, and to digest food perfectly, then nothing would have changed.

is asumption your middle name or what. why is perfection static, where does it say that adam was perfect, i remeber good, obviously adam was not perfect had he been then he would have been obediant and that he was not, gullible might be a better word and that does not fit into perfect in my definition

no
your jumps in logic and your a priori assumptions render your question inane...
if you follow your "logic" ...it is obvious that g-d was not perfect after he made Adam....after all, g-d had to decide to make a "man"...and therefore was no longer an infinitely unchangable unmovable perfect-in-itself entity ...g-d's "perfectness" was compromised by g-d him/her/itself!!!
