Biological complexity: misfolded protein problems (Introduction)

DAVID: I did not say God makes mistakes, you did. He designed the most perfect biological cell division reproduction high speed system could allow. Mechanisms make mistakes. I didn't miss your point.

dhw: I am baffled by your logic. Perfect = without mistakes or faults. You say your God’s design of the system was perfect, but the system he designed makes mistakes at times (= is not perfect). So your God’s perfect design is imperfect. Does this mean your God was incapable of a perfect design because the system he created took over and insisted on making mistakes, which meant he had to invent correcting mechanisms which also made mistakes, because not all organisms survive? Ugh, what a whale-like mess! Meanwhile, you have not responded to my point, which would disentangle all this confusion.

You are a stickler for an exact meaning of words. I've modified my original statement with what I've said above. And yes, He recognized the mistakes that can happen in a high speed biologic mechanism so He designed corrective mechanisms, but I'll agree, biologic mechanisms cannot be absolutely perfect, since we see mistakes.
