Christians Getting Naked

"What is a Christian naturist? As Christians we uphold the moral values taught by our savior Jesus Christ while as naturists we enjoy being nude in a non-sexual, non-erotic way. In short, we are committed to a Christian, international, family centered, natural and naturist set of Core Values.

Our emphasis is on how Christians can live naturally in their homes and enjoy recreational or social activities while free of clothing and shame. In our forums we will talk about how that works, and in our albums we will show pictorial evidence of Christian naturism in action. You will see natural affection, by way of smiles and occasional hugs, but nothing more. You will not see enticing shots inviting the thought of eroticism, that is not what we are about.

Naturists may be young or old, large or small, and from any race or creed. As such you will see photos which include families, adults, teens, and children alike. The style of photos we portray here is in compliance with federal standards for displaying family nudity. We do not display photographs for the purpose of adult entertainment, but for the purpose of public education, which is consistent with our legal standing as a 501 (c) (3) Religious Corporation in the State of Florida, USA."
BE ADVISED, clicking on "source" will bring you to a web page with full frontal nudity.
So, how do you think this squares with the Christian faith?

Well...let's say they are Christians who have taken the Adam and Eve story a little too literally...but, yes, they're still Christians

I think a person sins when they see malice in other people's lifestyle. Or when you try to impose your moral values onto others: that means violating people's free will.

I don't see how it doesn't fit with any faith(unless it is explicitly forbidden).
They just want to hang out (no pun intended!) in the God-given state they were born with. Just like Adam and Eve.

Various religions have a sense that the more clothes people, especially women, wear, the less lust there is and the less people act on erotic feelings. I've not seen that to be accurate by any means. I think if you gave C3PO a sultry, come hither, woman's voice, there would be guys lining up to get inside that metal shell.

I get naked at least twice a day, nor am I above sleeping nude. :D

But in seriousness, whilst there's nothing intrinsically shameful about the human body, nudism as a lifestyle is not something I'd promote as compatible with Christian ethics.

I mean, I guess that's one way to take Jesus' command of "be not anxious about what you will wear" seriously...

I wonder, would they put clothes on to do the missionary position?

A friend of mine -- a Christian pastor -- went with her husband to a nudist resort. It astonished her how tolerant and accepting the people were. "They were practicing Christian Love better than my congregation on a Sunday."

People who have no experience of naturism have no clue how tolerant and accepting naturists tend to be.

No clue.

Obviously, you feel the naturists life style is inconsistent with the Christian faith. How so?



Nor did they promote transubstantiation.

.
They did but they didn't use the same word I agree. Jesus held up bread and wine and said this is my body this is my blood, amen amen if you do not eat the flesh and drink the blood of the son of man you have no life in you

I didn't say the naturalist way of life is unchristian... I just have some suspicion that some of them might be creeps

Kind of a shame when you think about it.

Nude Christians I would say are more on the right track than clothed ones. I remember accounts of Christians trying to clothe native tribes that likely been fully or partially nude for eons whom more than likely wondered themselves just what the hell is wrong with them.

I suppose if you see naked people of all ages sizes and shapes 24/7, it probably wouldn't be creepy at all overtime.

My cousin's friend was a nudist, and for him it more had a tribal natural feel than any sexual type of feeling that comes with being naked around other people for long periods. Makes sense actually. You probably wouldn't bat an eye after a while.

The more your nude around other people the more normal it becomes rather than sneaky-peeky for any type of sexual rise.

Why the need for "some" may be creeps? Isn't it a cert?

As Paul the apostle said, "... the women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with propriety" Titus 2:9

But even more applicable is

1Co 8:13
"Therefore, if what I eat causes my brother or sister to fall into sin, I will never eat meat again, so that I will not cause them to fall."

If by not wearing clothes, you cause even one person or child to sin, do you suppose that God will forgive you when your sin is so wanton?

I think that such persons do not have the slightest clue about Christian doctrine; and all this business about "nothing sexual" is also twaddle. It's "all" sexual and the behavior of nudists is often exceedingly immoral.
