If I remember correctly Adam and Eve had no clothes. It was not nakedness that cast them out but disobedience. We all have to learn. But then Jesus mentioned also about those casting the first stones also.
Please explain my culture to me. If we were sin free then we would not need forgiveness. What have I twisted ? Adam and Eve realized they were naked. They were cast out of the Garden for their disobedience.And the reason Jesus made the sacrifice on the cross so we could all be forgiven.
One must accept God with ones own free will, then teach them the real values of what is appropriate. But the first step is accepting God . The appropraite changes will come forth. Remember the DS promoted what is wrong today with the world. Now they can see and feel the difference. Just like jesus did with Mary Magdelene. This is why Jesus mentioned about casting the first stone.
Perhaps heed the warning "physician heal thyself or as Christ famously warned, rather than worrying about specks of dust in other peoples eyes instead worry about the shards in your own eyes that creates your Eyes Wide Shut blindness?
This is a basketball game, my dude. You're picking at cheerleaders now? We have bigger problems, but your gonna go quaker or jesuit on us, and torture and murder whoever disagrees with your interpretation of the Bible? That'll convert and save many souls fershure.
Fortunately, I converted to the Christian Church that traced its roots back to the beginning; the Orthodox Church, after I realized neo pharisee Christians had successfully duped me into hate Him and anything called Christianity.
Now I try to respond to joy killing, judgemental stone throwers with genuine pity and heartfelt prayers....with varying degrees of success. 😘
Hopefully, these piety policers will come to realize that in Christs famous Prodigal Son Parable the Good Son, wasn't the Good Son.
Then hopefully they'll ask themselves the question that's now part of a famous meme, "Are We the Bad guys?"

Fear and revere == pharisee thots
Loving Him comes first. The rest follows naturally from there. Christs words and deeds affirmed for 2,000 plus years as profoundly true.
Trying to put the cart before the horse, as the old saying goes, is not recommended.
I do recommend buying and reading this book, "The Orthodox Way" by Oxford scholar and convert to Orthodox (Non Western) Christianity, Ware.
It was my first huuuuge life transforming "red pill" read.
neo pharisees in christo camo used to enrage me
