Your thoughts!?Www@QuestionHome@Com

Fairly unacceptable in the wild too!. Mothers of many animals will often eat or kill their imperfect young!. Pack animals will often kill or leave to die any animal that is too imperfect for its own survival!.

Though society traditionally shuns those who are imperfect, I think there is added pressure through today's media for us not to accept imperfection!. We have every available cream and potion to correct facial imperfections, teeth veneers to get rid of those less than perfect teeth, cosmetic surgery for just about any body part that wasn't naturally graced with perfection!. Every type of therapy to ensure our personalities are ironed out and made more perfect and lets not forget breeders of certain dogs who will unethically breed parent to child to achieve the perfect show dog, knowing that they are producing animals with conditions so unbelievably painful but with such physical "perfection" that the Kennel Club and the likes of Crufts award top prizes to these poor animals, knowing the pain and suffering they are enduring just to look perfect!.

It seems those "less than perfect" addicts in society who attend the likes of AA, NA and any other Anonymous meetins may have a benefit over us, as they are constantly reminded to ask that:

God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference!.

Maybe we should all be saying that and giving ourselves the grace to accept ourselves when we are less than perfect!. Www@QuestionHome@Com

well it has to accept imperfection, because what actually is perfection!?

but thats just playing rhetoric!. i know what you mean!. and i think its just human nature!. the acceptance of those who are "insiders" and the rejection of "outsiders"!. generally speaking of course!. meant to be taken in the most general way you can!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

yes, there are cases when we human as we are desire for perfection and fails!.

we cannot accept at times that we are imperfect, true enough!.
so what most do is to anticipate the imperfection to come along and pops itself out!.!.

but we have the awareness of the imperfection from the beginning!.
we just don't like to accept somethings!.

God is man's attempt to become perfect!. You can't reach a goal without knowing what it is!.

To myself, God is a concept, of everything I need to be!. Perfection!. Everyone strives it!. As I progress through life, I gain more experience and knowledge, becoming closer to perfection!. And when I die, I have done everything that defines life, and have become perfect!.

Who wants to live in a lesser state if you can do something to improve your life!? If everybody were content to accept their imperfections, we'd still be living short, brutal lives in the trees and savannas!.

Not only is humanity able to, but humanity does accept imperfection!. I've never heard of someone accepting the concept of a perfect computer or a perfect car!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I have found that most people have an amazing ability to justify, accept and forgive most imperfections - in themselves!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
