Can perfection ever become reality?

[Takes Two To Tango]

I believe if the singularity is perfection than everything else that came after it is still perfection.

Therefore the universe is perfection in a way.

But normally I don't think so. Everything has flaws or weaknesses.

I guess I'm not truly convinced that perfection can become reality.

No, I think perfection exists but as an illusion because of imperfection. Like, striving for perfection is only possible if there is imperfection. And in life anyways, what might become perfect in some ways, let's say AI giving all the right answers, there will be imperfection in other ways too, directly related to it.

Oh wow very clever answer.

Yes, there are millions of examples of perfection in the world. A perfect circle, for example, like many things, can be determined by a mathematical equation.

1 + 1 = 2?

You got a valid point there.

The Matha sciences are perfect. Nature has shown perfection. But when we find the beauty and perfection on flaws, we are truly free.

The Matha sciences are perfect.

Absolutely not.

Perfection is a pretty loaded term. In terms of the universe I'd say it's perfect in a wholistic sense. Poe wrote about this in Eureka and makes a pretty good argument for it imo. As far as humans achieving perfection, they've been trying to via ideas from utopianists like St. Simon and Marx and it's led to the death of millions.

For anyone interested in this goofy idea of human perfection, Dostoevsky's Notes From Underground gives great arguments for what happens when humans choose quantity over quality. Transhumanism is retarded imo and is just gnosticism dressed in materialism.

I don't strive for perfection because that's impossible. Instead, I strive for excellence.
