Note: Before reading the following arguments, please understand that they are not what I believe. On Wednesdays, I deliberately argue for wrong ideas, challenging my listeners to call and defend the obvious right answer, which is usually far harder than one would expect. This is a summary of what Wacky Andrew will be arguing, not a representation of what real Andrew believes.
~You know you don’t want to, possibly that’s a little slice of God’s conscience telling you this doesn’t matter.
~You don’t want to be a Martha, right?
~It’s gotta be about the least significant thing you can possibly do with your time. It’s inferior to evangelism, prayer, Bible study, spending time with the kids, build relationships, spending time with your spouse, educating yourself, and just about anything else you can name. Plus it’s extremely unfun.
~You’re only going to have to do it all over again soon anyhow.
~There’s no such thing as a household chore that can’t be put off until tomorrow. So go ahead and do something important instead.
~Where does it end?
~In cleaning your house, you create trash, which dirties up everyone’s world.
~If you like it clean, then someone else doing it just irritates you because they do it wrong.
~Much of the time, we only do housework because people are coming over, which is a form of lying anyhow.

Other arguments against housework:
* It increases the amount of entropy in the universe which is a sin because God is a God of order and because it leads to the eventual destruction of the cosmos.
* By doing your own housework you're depriving someone else of a job
