Imperfection

1.      Perfect circles cannot be found in nature

2.      Is this because nature is imperfect?

3.      Is it blasphemy to say that God is not almighty?

4.      Can God create a stone which he cannot lift?

5.      Can the mind create a notion which it cannot bear?

6.      An absolute argument is such a notion

7.      It does not bear any dispute or doubt

8.      Thus it cannot advance by challenging itself

9.      However the universe is relative and flexible

10.  We have seasons because planetary orbits are elliptical

11.  There is beauty in nature because there is ambivalence

12.  There is suspense in life because of its uncertainties

13.  Thought can advance because of inconsistencies

14.  We believe in things which can’t be proved

15.  But then there is plenty of space to argue about.
