Brother asks a very important question, I'll answer it for the theists to save time with this debate:
Brother is asking, if God is perfect, how come he created something un-perfect. Because, if you look at Judaism, Islam, Hinduism, and Christianity, you understand the concept of the oneness of God. Eventhough God is all-mighty, HE CAN'T CREATE ANOTHER GOD!
The Brahma Sutra of Hinduism is?:
Eka braham teutanaste
Nena naste kinchen
Bagwan echihe
Dusura nehihe
Nehihe nehihe zarabi nehihe.
So God is ONE, without a second, without a double. It is also mentioned in the Quran, in Surat Al-'Ikhlas, llamullet wallam yulat, he begets not nor is he begotten, there's nothing like onto Him.
So only God is perfect, if you're asking if Adam and Eve are perfect, no they were not and nor are we. The fact that we have a free will, where we can choose to obey God or not, is actually what makes us closer to perfect, or closer to God: We have a reason! We're intelligent.
So it is not an imperfection, it is something bringing the human race closer to perfection. You see a dog, obeys his master, he has no free will, he can't NOT obey him. That's because it's an inferior being that acknowledges your superiority as a human. And that's why religious people bo down onto God, because they also acknowledge His superiority.
