label mankind as imperfect when the bible clearly explains that humans are sinners and are separated from God because of sin?

Because you are imperfect. Understand it. Revel in it. Believe in it, because that is what you are. Does it make you worm shit? Eventually, but it is nothing for you to worry about. Does God forgive you?
"That'll keep you going for the show. C'mon its time to go."
Does it matter? Is God the Marines, only wanting a "few good men"?
You are imperfect thru no fault your own. Does that mean you should live your life in guilt and shame? If you think so and it makes you happy then, yes, by all means, yes. If it seems a bit unfair and silly, then by all means, love who you can, enjoy what you can, and give thanks to God if it makes the enjoyment better.
You fear something that you were never meant to fear. But that fear is natural and therefore easily exploitable. If I met you today I think I would enjoy shooting a game of pool with you. Is there a better measure of a man than to be one who would be found enjoyable at pool? Love yourself. You are, indeed, so cool as to inspire the deepest jealousy of those in the next dimension. If only you knew how important you were then, I dare say, the Bible would shrink to insignficance. Within you is the universe, and all that it ever will be. God is your servant, He needs you to make his point; but, you are the point.

JW's believe that they're sinners because they have sinned, not that they sin because they ARE sinners.
