I suppose it depends on what one defines as beauty. I consider something beautiful if in addition to looking attractive, it emanates goodness and truthfulness and kindness and other noble qualities.

Beauty transcends our world and this cannot be classically defined, as a square can be defined as a figure with four, equal sides at right angles.
Things may have the appearance of beauty while being false or evil, in which case they are not truly beautiful. Such was my point, and by appearances yours a well.
