God is perfect,
Correct! 2 Samuel 22:31 "31 As for the [true] God, perfect is his way;
The saying of Jehovah is a refined one.
A shield he is to all those taking refuge in him"
Therefore all his creations are perfect
Correct! At the time of creation ALL his creations were perfect. Until Satan preformed the FIRST sin. Now sin occurred first in the spirit realm before its introduction on earth. For unknown ages full harmony with God prevailed in the universe. Disruption came through a spirit creature referred to simply as the Resister, Adversary (Heb., Sa·tan´; Gr., Sa·ta·nas´; Job 1:6; Ro 16:20), the principal False Accuser or Slanderer (Gr., Di·a´bo·los) of God. (Heb 2:14; Re 12:9) Hence, the apostle John says: "He who carries on sin originates with the Devil, because the Devil has been sinning from the beginning."-1Jo 3:8.
Therefore we are perfect: right?
Wrong!
Adam and Eve sinned just like Satan. Genesis 3:6-7 "6 Consequently the woman saw that the tree was good for food and that it was something to be longed for to the eyes, yes, the tree was desirable to look upon. So she began taking of its fruit and eating it. Afterward she gave some also to her husband when with her and he began eating it. 7 Then the eyes of both of them became opened and they began to realize that they were naked. Hence they sewed fig leaves together and made loin coverings for themselves"

What is perfect? The sound of the rain, the smile of a kid, a flower, the sunset, an ant at work, the sky, the light of the Milky Way in a dark night or a Nirvana song. I believe this things are perfect but and imaginary (or selfish) God and a grumpy human like me are out of the list of perfection.

Yes.
Yes we are perfect from Genesis one and two in the creation until the moment we (human) disobey they Lord God.
Up till the fall, we are prefect. But when we partake the fruit of knowledge of good and evil, we sinned. Thus no more prefect.
When we sin, the results of sin brings distruction not just on ourselve, but also to the earth, animal as well as to other human. And we lost the fellowship with God: peace with God.
But the good news is, the Lord had a plan of bringing us back to him. Now we can be justificed by faith and have peace with God, thru our Lord Jesus.
Cheers,

Wrong!
God is perfect. No one else. If Adam and Eve has not sinned, then we would have kept our first state. Having the glory of god as a clothing. While means they were perfect creations and having him as a clothing, they knew all things, Adam named all the animals, could you do that?????
Yet the bible does say, be perfect even as your Father in heaven is perfect. Which means we can only attain that through his spirit and throught him, not flesh. Flesh cannot please god.

No. Since the fall of Adam no one has been perfect accept for Jesus Christ.
For ALL have sinned and fallen short of the Glory of God. Romans 3:23

We are perfect because when we die and go before God, Jesus steps in and acknowleges us so that we can enter heaven.
We are made perfect in God's eyes through the blood of Jesus that was shed for us.
We are perfect now too for the same reason.

No. Not right. God alone is perfect. If we, His creations, were also perfect, then we would also be God.

Right, perfection is when a designer is able to design something and it fullfills all His intentions. with that said, the Human Being is perfect because the Creator designed us how he intended us to be, And Only a Being who is All-Perfect came make things exactly how he attended them to be.

Jhn 10:33 The Jews answered him, saying, For a good work we stone thee not; but for blasphemy; and because that thou, being a man, makest thyself God.
Jhn 10:34 Jesus answered them, Is it not written in your law, I said, Ye are gods?
BINGO!
