Did he create Adam and Eve with clothes?

If humans created clothes, isn't this total disregard for God's will?

They were naked in the Garden, but when they sinned they covered their private parts. I don't know what this means. Also, God provided them with furs and such when they left, but I'm assuming the climate outside the garden was not as warm and hospitable as inside.

There is nothing essentially sinful about nudity (Genesis 2:25). Adam and Eve did not realize they were naked after the Fall (Genesis 3:7-11). Before the Fall, they were naked, and it was good (Genesis 1:31). Sin is what caused nakedness to become a problem. Sin introduced lust, immorality, and perversion into the human race. As a result, we can no longer look at a nude person of the opposite sex in a pure manner. God made clothing for Adam and Eve to resolve this problem (Genesis 3:21). If God approved of nakedness, He would have simply told them that being naked was okay, and they did not need to feel embarrassed or ashamed. The fact that God clothed Adam and Eve indicates that God expects us to be clothed.

He created Adam and Eve naked and unashamed in the Garden, but by their sin they got themselves expelled from Paradise and cast out into the imperfect world we have now. So then they had to wear clothes for protection.
Adam and Eve didn't know they were naked until they had sinned...then they hid from God, who up until then had communicated directly with them as a Friend. God's first question after the Fall was "Adam, where are you?" as if He didn't know; he was giving Adam a chance to confess. Instead, Adam says, "I hid myself because I was naked". "And who told you you were naked?"--Meaning, and what have you been up to?? He wanted Adam to admit his sin and Adam tried so hard not to confess!
It's not the clothes that go against God's will, it's the sin-nature and rebellion.

My God you are so deficient of Biblical knowledge. Did God ask us to wear clothes? It was after the 'fall' that Adam and Eve became aware they were naked and tried hiding their nakedness with leaves. And to God's question who told you you were naked, they had no answer.
What the pristine condition of being innocent, without clothes, etc. is not precisely known.
After cursing man and Satan, the Lord God took it upon Himself to fashion coverings for man (Adam & Eve) from skin of animals. Read Genesis.

God didn't creat clothes. After Adam and Eve ate the apple and "their eyes were opened" they felt naked. So clothes are a result of sin.

The clothes thing is to show us that we need a covering. Before the fall of man we didn't need one. After the fall our sin showed and the covering was only good enough when it was sacrifice. The sacrifice ultimately could only cover our sin if God the son became sacrifice for our sin. If you look into the Sin barrier you will find our exactly why we need a covering. Its a picture of our nakedness in front of God the father. By the way Jesus was 100% man and 100% God so that may help you in your study.

It's so easy to get answers to these questions. All you have to do is pick up the Bible. God did not create Adam and Eve with clothes. He actually created them naked. This is how they were to be until they did the ONE thing God told them not to do. He gave them this beautiful place to live containing every thing they would ever need. He asked them not to eat fruit from one tree in the garden. They did anyway and they themselves covered their bodies with leaves because of their shame and embarrasment that they disobeyed God. They wanted to hide because of their shame and so they covered themselves. So it has been since then.

ok let me clear your doubts on this topic.
When God create Adam and Eve, they didnt felt ashamed to stand in God's sight. but it was until that they desobeyed God and eat fruit from the tree in the middle of the garden, their eyes were open, and they couldn't no longer stand in the sight of God, so they had to hid themselves, They felt ashamed, so that is why they clothed themselves with leaves...

In addition to what kait told you, Adam and Eve were nude until after they sinned with the apple and were cast out of Eden.
