You're saying we're flawed using other words.

I'd appreciate if you didn't put your words in my mouth.
"We are what we are", I said. Do you actually read "flawed"? For this I did not write, nor did I mean it. Just because out molecular make-up is different form one and another, just because we come from different socio-cultural backgrounds, just because we like to compare ourselves to other people and feel smug and superior when we think we are better, it doesn't make the other one flawed. My opinion on a flawed human? A child born with genetic deficiencies that he can't breath, walk, eat or in any other way take care of himself, but to a loving parent he might be the most perfect child in the world. Take care Frodo, with your outlook on on this matter, no-one can become anything else than bitter.
When I was young, there was a god with infinite power protecting me. Is there anyone else who felt that way? And was sure about it? but the first time I fell in love, I was thrown down - or maybe I broke free - and I bade farewell to God and became human. Now I don't have God's protection, and I walk on the ground without wings, but I don't regret this hardship. I want to live as a person. -Arina Tanemura
