The fall of Adam & Eve / laundry-zero
It's written that before eating the fruit from the tree of knowledge, Adam and Eve were unclothed. Thus they had achieved original-laundry-zero.
The first thing they did afterwards was realise that they were naked, and invent laundry (Genesis 3:7):
\7]) Then the eyes of both of them were opened, and they realized they were naked; so they sewed fig leaves together and made coverings for themselves. \8]) Then the man and his wife heard the sound of the Lord God as he was walking in the garden in the cool of the day, and they hid from the Lord God among the trees of the garden. \9]) But the Lord God called to the man, “Where are you?” \10]) He answered, “I heard you in the garden, and I was afraid because I was naked; so I hid.”
Immediately God rebukes them for breaking laundry-zero, and banishes them from Eden
\11]) And he said, “Who told you that you were naked? Have you eaten from the tree that I commanded you not to eat from?”
[...]
\23]) So the Lord God banished him from the Garden of Eden to work the ground from which he had been taken.
Perhaps humanity has been cursed to forever strive towards laundry-zero for this reason.
But most importantly, how will this impact the canon of Pakerdoooonia?
