I understood it the way you did.

There are lots of other examples of people breaking God's commandments on God's orders. Weird. (IMO. )

Well, OK, but I don't recall a command from God to wear clothing. I had other examples in mind.

Surprised no one has brought up Jacob. His deceit and lie brought about the name, Israel.

Is it ethical for you to eat when children are starving in Africa?

That's another one of those clumsy KJV renderings. Read it in some other translations and you'll see that Paul is asking a rhetorical question here.

Just where can we find an explicit command to "wear clothes?"

"In the beginning" clothes seem to be a contingency for the shame the man and woman felt after they had sinned. From then on it seems we've all just assumed that we are supposed to feel the same shame of our own nakedness.

Oops... looks like AFF is going down yet another slippery slope just because they all want to some how disprove the importance of the dress code standards.
