It's easy to imagine how something rusts or detoriates, so physical things go from near perfect to imperfect. But to ask, how can any imperfection come from THE perfection? The answer is, that everything is imperfect because not everything is God. Or, you can say that everything is God, and there is no such thing as imperfection, and it is only our minds that interpret things to be imperfect. So where then does that come from? Simple: a lack of knowledge.
Everything is God.

Great question!
It is as illogical for something perfect (God) to have created something imperfect (Man), as it is for imperfect Man to have created perfect God. This explains why man's attempt didn't come out very perfect!
That sounds about as good a proof that God is man-made as any.

Easy. Take something perfect, like a sphere. Now take a bite out of it, or rip a piece off it. Imperfection.

Because sin corrupts perfection and then it becomes imperfection. Say, you a perfectly righteous person... never sinned once. You and your righteousness would be perfect... but if you, were righteous but not also full of humility at the same time, then your righteousness becomes as filthy rags. Don't know about you, but I can't stand self-righteousness, and pridefulness in people, nomatter how much good they are doing.

imperfection is an idea, not a reality. Ideas are constructive or destructive and that concept is perfect in that we learn from the destructive ideas to have constructive ones.

when choice is allowed in the created, imperfection can occur.

It can't. That's one of the many paradoxes that surround the concept of the Abrahamic god.

Read Descartes. It's a basic tenet he uses in his proof of God.
