[quote] I said he was capable of making mistakes, [b]I did not say he made mistakes.[/b] [/quote]

and
 [quote] [b]Yes, he did make a few mistakes in his lifetime[/b], and Allah corrected him by revealing it in the Qur'an. Those were the only mistakes he made [/quote].

One needs to be careful as to what one means. Either you think he made some mistakes or he did not. 
Even if you did not say it before. the above is crystal clear that you think he made some mistakes. 
Also exactly how do you know that he did not make any other mistakes? Even disregarding this..I assumed to be perfect = 0 mistakes. So how many mistakes is a human allowed to make befor he is not considered to be perfect

[quote] Otherwise, he was a perfect human. When I say "perfect", I mean "perfect compared to other humans". Every sentence of his used to be better than the previous one. He stood on an "exalted standard of character" as the Qur'an puts it. [/quote]

To some degree I agree with you as most things in life are relative.
However you did not directly answer my earlier point that the whole pilosphy of most (I would have said all but now i know that you are not one of them) of hadith followers is that he was/is infallible and made no mistakes in his life, hence the perfect being. Having made some mistakes (exact number not relevant) floors this logic.

[quote] And I agree with you that the writer hasn't presented any proof of his writing. I'll try to get the proof, Inshaa-Allah. [/quote]

No problem take your time. Believe me you will need it....as it takes long time to find something which does not exist.
Oh and please do not give us another opinion, no matter how scholarly.
