PAR
APPRECIATING THE "PAR"
Finding par. Making par. Doing par.
What is "par?"
Par is a standard of expectation and experience used to define, to quantify, many levels of normalcy, competency in various disciplines.
Perhaps if perfection were par, there would be less need for so many varying standards among men. But perfection is impossible, we are told. We are told this even though Jesus said "be you perfect as your father in heaven is perfect." Matt. 5:48. We are told this even though the pyramids of Egypt are perfect, as is Euclid's geometry. We are told this, although the whole natural world is perfect; and humans are productions of nature.
Par is Godlike, Godliness, in truth.
Once one accepts less than perfect as par, any formulation will suffice!
