Well I believe in absolute existence... but do you consider noumenona to be perfect?

I believe reality exists absolutely, that is to say, I believe it exists independent of myself and other observers. It is beyond subjectivity, I reckon. But I don't claim to absolutely know this for I cannot without having absolute powers myself....

I do not however, believe in absolute perfection. Because I don't know how that would make any sense, how something 'perfect' could exist in absolute reality. I believe 'perfect' to be a subjective concept - as TheVOID says - but I do not deny the possibility that 'absolute perfection'... may indeed exist.

Perfection only has meaning in relation to a specific use. So I agree with theVOID that all perfection we refer to is subjective and not absolute.
