I don't think people are perfect. I don't actually have much use for the word perfect. I think you've leaped to an assumption about what I "believe".

Flawed in what sense? Flawed is meaningless if things are exactly the way they should be. Flawed usually only means that we don't like the way something is. A flaw in a diamond is an imperfection in the matrix that someone who might want to wear the diamond would not like. But if we could view it objectively, is it really a flaw? It's only a flaw because there are people around to call it a flaw, and to value the diamond without one. Meaningless, really, I think.

The only rule in the universe at the moment, is that we don't know the rules of the universe. We may know them someday, or we may not. You think you find flaws. What you really find are things that disrupt processes for humans. Is that really, ultimately, a flaw? That's an article of belief.
