evolution implies constant continual and infinite improvement.
whereas perfection implies no further need to change or improve.
evolution is easily conceived of.
perfection is impossible to define.

yes god evolves
the true god
the pseudo-christians' pseudo god cannot -- it, like they, are stuck in a rut of a swamp of a disgusting maelstrom of dead events (unnerstan?)
perfection, as they express it, is a medieval myth, a construct of a church that debased the mass of humans into a servant class serving their lords of the feudal and religious hierarchies and, ultimately, the ultimate feudal "Lord".
where King James renders "perfect", the closer rendering of the Greek word is "mature". Perfect insinuates an ultimate "glass ceiling" -- an end, whereas "mature" indicates a continual growth.
so we can insinuate that Yeshua's original intent was to create for people that possibility of growth. perfection is an impossible goal. growth is always possible, always a factor.
thus evolution.
