Is cleanliness really next to godliness?

Asked by candide (743points) February 27th, 2010

Or is that just something cooked up by Dominican nuns to keep the novices busy? How clean is God? If God likes cleanliness, why did he make humans? What do you think of religions that have cleanliness rituals, e.g. taking showers after certain acts or not attending prayers or church during menstruation, etc.?
