Complete/Perfection

I may have to question to some degree the use of the word complete. While one of its nuantic meanings is perfect, it also and more primarily means finished, over, done. Ish may be fulfilled when joined with Isha, and, while without sin, Adam and Woman may have been more nearly perfect(complete?) had they eaten of the Tree of Life, but they ate that other fruit, whereby they realized their incompleteness(sin and guilt) so the Tree of Life was kept from their diet and thus they remain incomplete yet perhaps fulfilled(less lonely) in each other. As to: Were they 'complete' meaning perfect? Not for long, if at all, and only in that euphemism called 'potential'....

that other aspect of completeness-finished and done--keeps raring up and mok=cking me in this situation because when you look at the progress or perhpas devolution of man into a techno wonk and his frequent neglect of others and even God then complete seems a little out of the question. Now if complete means largely and almost exclusively capable of fending the world for themselves without thought or care for eternity and no shadow of "not gonna change nosiree" then complete is a good word for the state of man at alomost any time in his history.
