A clean home

"Cleanliness is next to godliness." Would have been a good argument had it been canonized in the scriptures. I suppose sense Hinckley quoted it, maybe it should be.

The next best scripture would be:

D&C 42: 41 And let all things be done in acleanliness before me.

The Dursleys in Harry Potter like a clean house, but I guess they are the extreme. Bob Saget’s role in Full House is an extreme as well.

Here is a reason not to clean, I suppose:

How a clean home can be a killer...

Ok, but this doesn’t explain why Mrs. Weasley’s cleaning magic is so ineffective. How long have those pots been scrubbing themselves? I would assume one could conjure the right spell and get it all clean in an instant.

I had a strange dream once that I had super powers and was able to clean super fast. I accomplished a lot in a few minutes. Then I started to think how unsatisfied I was. Why, I had a clean house? I just felt cheated on a the accomplishment.
