Is God Perfect?

[TomOfSweden]

Tom: If Aristotle's potter must, by necessity, be perfect, how did imperfections come into being?

According to the theory there are none. The world is perfect and just like god intended it to be. An important feature in the theory is that the goal was to explain why the world is perfect, or rather in perfect balance. If you don't think the world is perfect then this theory isn't for you.

Don't forget that this is way before the Theodicy paradox and the myrriad other problems with it's basic assumption were formulated.

Aristotle didn't actually have faith in this theory. It was just a theory. He also formulated the theory of abiogenesis, which is pretty much its oposite. He didn't have faith in that one either.
