Is God imperfect?
For God to create the imperfect must either mean that he himself was imperfect or he deliberatly made those who were so they could screw up,be punished by him, and suffer here on earth.Then, according to this developing new religion, God takes incredibly his big time special only begotten son, who would appearantly be more holy then the rest of scum on earth, and sends him as a blood sacrafice to suffer and die on a cross as a way of vicariously atoning for people's sins.
Accept now there is another big problem, because even according to christianity's own doctrines, this does not really atone for anybody else's sins.If it atoned for people's sins, then that would be the end of it.Problem solved. But no! It now becomes necessary for everyone to blindly believe in all of the details conveniently set forth exclusivly by the christian religion, or else they will still burn in hell,even if they are born presumably by God's will in a place,time,or culture that is unaware of this religion!
Oh, I believe in God and Jesus. But I do not believe they are who Christians say they are. It is very simple Jesus saw people as being the same him and God - unlimited and perfect. All other characteristics we put on to other people or onto God are really our own unconscious beliefs about ourselfs.
to believer in jesus 374. So that would mean because of your own fears you came up with the conclusion that I'm an unbeliever. God bless you!

If there is a god he is just bored and made a little toy called Earth. He pokes at it and laughs at everyone on yahoo answers.

Although you may sincerely believe what you've written, I hope you won't be close-minded about it or refuse to reexamine it. After all, if God isn't perfect (as you contend), that means He can make mistakes—and therefore it means He can't be trusted.
But the Bible is clear: God is perfect, and therefore we can trust Him—even for our eternal salvation. The Bible says, "As for God, his way is perfect; the word of the Lord is flawless" (Psalm 18:30). Not only is God perfect in all He does, He also is perfect in all He is.
Take, for example, the case you cite of Adam and Eve. Why did God make them so they could sin and do wrong? The reason is because He didn't want them to be puppets or robots. He made them with a free will—for only then could they freely love Him. Yes, it was a risk on God's part—but if He hadn't taken it, Adam and Eve (and you and I) would be robots, not humans.
I can't help but wonder, however, if your real problem is something deeper. Down inside, are you refusing to believe in God out of pride, or perhaps because you want to run your own life? Whatever the reason, I pray you won't let anything keep you from Christ. God loves you, and the greatest privilege you will ever have is the privilege of knowing Him. Open your heart and mind to Christ today.

almost everything that god does is unexplainable. the answer to your question; is god imperfect? the answer is yes.
does god know everything? yes. but has he experienced everything? no. there is a fine line between knowing everything and experiencing everything. before he even created us, he himself did not know how it would be to have human beings.
later he regreted what he did and destroyed all of us. remember noahs ark? it's like he created a painting on a canvas, didn't like it, trashed it, and started all over again with a new canvas.
later he regreted that and created the rainbow to promise us all that it will never happen again.
there are lists and lists of situations like this in the bible itself. it would be extremely time consuming to keep listing multiple reasons why he is imperfect. 1 mistake would make him or anyone imperfect. listed above are 3.. if you want more, ive got plenty.

Who says God made anything imperfect?
Ignorant man?!
Who Say's man isn't perfect, man uses your crap as an excuse not to be perfect!
Man is created perfect, but with FREE WILL, Man chooses not to be!
To BE or not to BE (perfect), that is the question.
We chose not to be, what we were created to be!
Perfect.
That's why Lucifer and all the fallen Angels are MANS adversary!
We haven't, as of yet earned anything, especially free will, Have we?????
