Of course I would then propose that our goal isn't forever striving to become an abstraction. I don't set out every day to become perfection, I set out to become a perfect person. I can't achieve it, but that is my true goal. Become a person who is perfection. This implies that my highest goal, my God, is ... A person.

Maybe that is circular reasoning or has some other logical flaw, but in order to become what I wish to become, it is highly advantageous that I believe it.
