God doesn't. Everything God created was good, right, perfect, and in complete alignment with his plans for this world, and the people in it.
However, because Satan is busy, and is not only capable of anything, but will do any negative thing under the sun to cast doubt, deceive, delay, deter, and detour; as well as draw believers away from God and godliness, imperfection exists. His job is to wreak havoc (thereby making God look bad) by any means possible. There are also conditions in the world that exist because of Adam and Eve's fall from grace, which Satan exploits to achieve his purpose.
Let's consider, for example, (the aforementioned) Adam and Eve. They were perfectly created. They behaved perfectly, in complete obedience to God's will. They had a perfect relationship with God. They lived a perfect life. They had perfect health. They lived in a perfect environment. They lived in perfect harmony and in perfect peace with their fellow creatures. There was perfect weather. Eve would have had perfect pregnancies and deliveries. She and Adam would have had perfect children.
This was God's original plan and desire for the world. God has always wanted to restore people to this perfect existence, so he sent his son to die for us (God required a perfect substitute, one without sin), so that we could be restored to a right relationship with him through Christ. Which is why God says in his word, that he will create a new heaven and a new earth; perfection in all aspects, will be restored.
Hope I helped. God bless you.

God does not make anything imperfect. The bible tells us that anything that is good comes from God. Like for example, humanity is good, right? God created humans to interact with Him and love Him and to love others. He created us to have relationships with Him and others. That is good. But, the enemy comes in. And that is where bad comes in. When Adam and Eve was created and put in the garden, everything was perfect. When satan entered the garden, he introduced a new idea to Eve, disobedience. When Eve decided to disobey, she became imperfect and thus passed this along to Adam. Because God gave His creations free will, Eve chose to disobey. Another example, God gave us water. Water is essential for living. It is good. But, enter in imperfect human beings. They pollute the water, so water has to be cleansed before it is drank. Everything that came from God is good, it is not Him that has fouled things up. But, God has promised us a better future when His Son returns, perfection will return and we can stand on His promises.

Hello. Blessings and Peace.
I believe that 'god' in the sense that you are speaking of 'god' is the tyrannical, wicked creator god, also called the Demiurge. The creator god is imperfect and the was imprefection; so its creation is also imperfect. Naturally do faults and discrepancies pass on from parent to child? The creator god is 'poverty' and all creation is 'poverty'.

Every thing made by God is perfect.It is our conception of something perfect or imperfect that is changing every minute.

You mean perfect like free without defects? Perhaps He created us with these "faults" so we could learn from them and come to the conclusion that we should be worshipping God for even creating us in the first place? Just an idea...

Actually everything is perfect in God's creations! It takes the vision of Wisdom to realise it, perceive the perfection around, perfection within! There are perfect lenses and magnificent magnifying glasses to view the perfection: it is a thought that i offer here, that the dying see the perfection in their last few moments and pass on! They cannot pass it on to you anymore, except in your spiritual moments, when and if you connect to them! But, the bottomline is, everything is perfect!

Because it's our job to perfect it via his guidelines.
He created imperfect beings in an imperfect land so they could perfect themselves through their intelligence and thus make his creation REALLY perfect.

God is the only thing that is perfect. Whenever He creates something it immediately becomes subject to change as it exists in this physical universe and therefore can be acted upon by other forces over time. So while God creates things just the way that He wants them to be and they are in that sense "perfect", unlike God they are not immutable.

That's a mystery. But I wonder if our own human imperfections are because we are not finished yet. Maybe we are given the gift of awareness during our own creation rather than after it, so that we can participate in it.
