Nudist

God is Very Pro Nudity Pro Sex I Prove It Half way down, I go over Genesis, verse by verse.

God creation clearly shows us what God’s attitude is about nudity and sexuality. God creation is clear and supersedes anything else. God’s creation can’t lie or be misunderstood, it is very clear. If any person or religion tells you the opposite they are wrong. God clearly shows himself in his creation clearly.

What do we learn from God’s creation.

What do we learn about God from God’s creation?

So in review of God desire, and God's plan, God’s design, God’s way, for 100% all creation is:

All creation including humans, be 100% open public nudist. all no acceptation.

All creation including humans, be 100% open  public sex with no man made shame or guilt

All creation including humans, be 100% have unlimited sex partners over a life time.

All creation including humans, be 100% have no marriage on earth or in heaven for all creation.

All creation including humans,  have   incest to populate the earth.

Most important First couple is the “Ultimate Incest Couple” is Adam and Eve hand made by God.

Gen 1:31 NLT Then God looked over all he had made, and he saw that it was excellent in every way.                                Gen 1:31 CEB God saw everything he had made: it was supremely good.                                        Gen 1:31 GNT God looked at everything he had made, and he was very pleased.                          Gen 1:31 MSG God looked over everything he had made; it was so good, so very good!

"Don’t go to your preacher and ask him if this statement is true. Preachers are honest but blind about some things just like the rest of us.

In sexual matters especially, religious leaders have much to gain by NOT questioning the status quo and many will NOT even seriously consider any alternate viewpoint on any sexual matter.

They have been trained by their mentors, pressured by their peers, and threatened by their financial insecurity to give nothing but the “majority report” on sexual issues.

So if you want to be confident that you are getting close to

objective Bible truth, look for yourself.

You will be amazed, even flabbergasted at what you find

when you look for yourself, with eyes that want to see what is in the Bible.

You may even be angry at what has been kept from you by those who were responsible to tell you “just the truth ma’am,” but who, for many reasons, could not even find the truth for themselves. "

Explain in detail below

·  Matthew 11:29, 30 NLT

Jesus said:

Take my yoke upon you.

Let me teach you, because I am humble and gentle,

and you will find rest for your souls.

For my yoke fits perfectly,

and the burden I give you is light."

1.)    In Gen 1-3,  God created 100% creation public nudist. God wants all creation to be 100%  public nudist, include all women and all men. This was and is God’s desire and plan for today also.

2.)    Also 100% creation has open public sex for all to see including all plants, all animals, all humans, 100% all creation. This is desire for 100% all creation for all times. God's plan, design, desire for all. Gen 1:31 God said was very good or excellent.

God created all animals and humans, "one male, one female" NOT to only have one sex partner for life, but the opposite. We clearly see God "built in program" for all plants, animals and humans  to have “unlimited” sex partners over a life time. God “programed” it into 100% of his creation at creation for all times. All plants, all animals, and all humans. We clearly observe this daily.

Song of Solomon 6:8 BBE There are sixty queens, and eighty servant-wives, and young girls without number.

Song of Solomon 6:8 KJV There are threescore queens, and fourscore concubines, and virgins without number.

Song of Solomon 6:8 NIV Sixty queens there may be, and eighty concubines, and virgins beyond number;

SOS 6:8 NLT … be sixty wives, all queens, and eighty concubines and unnumbered virgins available to me.

SOS 6:8 CEB There may be sixty queens and eighty secondary wives, young women beyond counting,

SOS 6:8 CJB There are sixty queens and eighty concubines, as well as young women beyond number;

Song of Solomon 6:8 GW There are 60 queens, 80 concubines, and countless virgins,

SOS 6:8 NCV  There may be sixty queens and eighty slave women and so many girls you cannot count them,

2 Samuel 12:8 NLT I gave you his house and his wives and the kingdoms of Israel and Judah. And if that had not been enough, I would have given you much, much more. (unlimited)

2 Samuel 12:8 CJB I gave you your master's house and your master's wives to embrace. I gave you the house of Isra'el and the house of Y'hudah. And if that had been too little, I would have added to you a lot more.

2 Samuel 12:8 MSG I gave you your master's daughter and other wives to have and to hold. I gave you both Israel and Judah. And if that hadn't been enough, I'd have gladly thrown in much more. (unlimited)

Go to the zoo in the spring and you will see God’s “built in programing” all God's animals, 100% nudist,having public sex for all to see with no shame and no guilt. Animals did not sin, only humans sinned and only humans sinned and  rejected God and God's plan for them, given to 100% creation at creation.

Also we learn from God's creation that at creation, no one is married. 100% not married. All were the same. Plants are not married, no “one male, one female” animal is married, humans were not married either.

If  Adam ate of the “tree of (eternal) life”. It would be eternal "heaven" on earth. Jesus said, there is no marriage in heaven.   "Heaven" on earth, there would have been no marriage either.

Today "sinner marriage" was part of the  punishment to Eve. Gen 3:16 Eve’s "sinner marriage" where male is authority over female for the first time. Change of the “chain of command”. Now male had authority over “owned” females and could control their sex partners or sexual freedom.

Man still has unlimited sex partners, only one in all creation was limited sexual freedom, that  was Eve. For more Read my web pages. Husbands or father had control over their owned females and had authority to let them have many sex partners or more sexual freedom or not.

Also, incest was part of God plan to populate the earth. Especially at creation and after Noah’s Ark. Both time to use incest to populate the earth.  Because God make all animals and all humans "one male, one female" then God had to ordain incest for both animals and humans to populate the earth, also plants, 100% of creation. It could not be done without incest. Conclusion,  that incest was an needed and  important  part of God’s desire and God’s plan. We see this today daily.

Also the “Ultimate Incest Couple” is Adam and Eve. God made Eve from Adam’s rib. God make all animals “one male, one female” from dirt. God made Adam from Dirt. But Eve from Adam.  Both had identical DNA, an  identical DNA clone, an identical twin with same identical DNA, but God only changed the sex of the identical twin, clone. This is the closest  in DNA a couple can be, more  than any other incest couple anywhere, for all times. “God hand made Ultimate Incest Couple”.

Gen 1:31 NLT Then God looked over all he had made, and he saw that it was excellent in every way.                                Gen 1:31 CEB God saw everything he had made: it was supremely good.                                        Gen 1:31 GNT God looked at everything he had made, and he was very pleased.                          Gen 1:31 MSG God looked over everything he had made; it was so good, so very good!

What do we learn about God from God’s creation?

This is who God is. God is very pro-public nudist, very pro-public sex, pro-public unlimited sex partners, pro-swingers, pro-polygamy,   pro-incest.  Bible says Jesus created everything. Jn 1:1

John 10:10 WYC A night thief (Satan) cometh not, but that he steal, and slay, and lose; I (Jesus) came, that they have life, and have more plenteously.

John 10:10 NLT The thief's (Satan) purpose is to steal and kill and destroy. My (Jesus) purpose is to give life in all its fullness.

John 10:10 BBE I (Jesus) have come so that they may have life and have it in greater measure

John 10:10 KJV I (Jesus) am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.

John 10:10 CJB; I(Jesus)have come so that they may have life, life in its fullest

John 10:10 NIRV I (Jesus) have come so they can have life. I want them to have it in the fullest possible way.

John 10:10 YLT I (Jesus) came that they may have life, and may have [it] abundantly.

Adam and Eve believe Satan lies and put cloths on. God did NOT want them to put on cloths. From Satan lies, not from God.

To do a correct hermeneutical research study on nudity and sexuality from the Bible,  this is where you start.  Also, this is most important part of the study,  because, God did it and God said it was and is excellent. Also even if there was no Bible we can still see God’s creation daily to observe these things to be truth. Also at the “fall” humans added the “sin principal” to God perfect creation or “God perfect human nature”.

Jesus Died to reverse what the first Adam did. Jesus is the “second Adam”. In Jesus Christian are a “NEW” creation similar to the first creation of God living under the Law of Love only.

Act 10: 13 Then a voice said to him, "Get up, Peter; kill and eat them." 14 "Never, Lord," Peter declared. "I have never in all my life eaten anything forbidden by our Jewish laws. " 15 The voice spoke again, "If God says something is acceptable, don't say it isn't." 16 The same vision was repeated three times

Jesus make most everything “clean” any thing that was known as “unclean”. Christian are under the Law of Love today.

·  Matthew 11:29, 30 NLT

Take my yoke upon you.

Let me teach you, because I am humble and gentle,

and you will find rest for your souls.

For my yoke fits perfectly,

and the burden I give you is light."

Titus 1:15 NLT “ Everything is pure to those whose hearts are pure. But nothing is pure to those who are corrupt and unbelieving, because their minds and consciences are defiled.”Jesus makes our hearts pure. We are NEW creations.

Adam and Eve became “corrupt and unbelieving, because their minds and consciences are defiled.”

Do not copy sinful and corrupt Adam and Eve after the fall. They were pure before they sinned.

Jesus reverses what Adam did. We are “new creation” in Christ. As Adam and Eve were before the fall when Adam and Eve were the “new creation”.

We learn how God thinks. We learn the mind of God, himself, with out any middle man to confuse things or inject their corrupt thinking.

In the beginning God created human nudity and sexuality similar to the animals. Both having 100% open public nudity and 100% open public sexuality with many partners to be holy and pure, sinless with no shame and no guilt for both animals and humans alike.

Similar to animals, we did not have the judging factors that we have today. We were like the animals with no shame and no guilt over our nudity and sexuality with many partners. Having sex with many partners make all species stronger.

Animals and humans were created similar with regards to nudity and sex. God created 100% of his creation 100% open public nudity and 100% open public sexuality with many sex partners.  100% God creation was like this. This is God design and God desire and plan for 100% of his creation.

Some will tell you that because he made one man and one women that is God plan that one man can only have sex with one women only. This is clearly  proven wrong by God creation. God also make only one male and one female animal, similar to humans, and we clearly see that all the animals,  God designed,  has sex with many sex partner over a life time. Animals are still functioning on God design. They still have 100% nudity and still have 100% open public sex with many partner even to this very day. All can see God creation at work today. Adam and Eve were design by God to have 100% open public nudity and 100% open public sex with many sex partner to keep the spieces strong similar to animals.

The Bonobos, God’s creation, also clearly show this beyond any doubt God’s creation  and God plan and God attitude about nudity and sexuality. They are the closest animal to human make up and thinking. They continues to this day of having 100% open public nudity and 100% open public sexuality with many sex partners and they have a very peaceful society with little or no violence’s at all. They clearly have continues God’s design with great results.  Human started on the same path but sinned and got corrupt thinking and disobey God design and when down the wrong path opposite what God wanted. Bonobo obey God’s plan and we disobey God’s plan. Bonobos did not get corrupt thinking they have same thinking of God from the beginning. Human did get man made corrupt thinking opposite of God’s thinking.

What can we learn from God’s creation,  the Bonobos?

*********************************************************************

Gen 1:20 And God said, "Let the waters swarm with fish and other life. Let the skies be filled with birds of every kind." 21 So God created great sea creatures and every sort of fish and every kind of bird. And God saw that it was good. (they were 100% nudity and 100% open public sex with many partners) 22 Then God blessed them, saying, "Let the fish multiply and fill the oceans. Let the birds increase and fill the earth." 23 This all happened on the fifth day.

24 And God said, "Let the earth bring forth every kind of animal – livestock, small animals, and wildlife." And so it was. 25 God made all sorts of wild animals, livestock, and small animals, each able to reproduce more of its own kind. And God saw that it was good. (they were 100% nudity and 100% open public sex with many partners) (Just like humans he created one male and one female of each animal, but later they had sex with many sex partners, just like humans with no shame and no guilt)

26 Then God said, "Let us make people  in our image, to be like ourselves. They will be masters over all life – the fish in the sea, the birds in the sky, and all the livestock, wild animals, and small animals." 27 So God created people in his own image; God patterned them after himself; male and female he created them. 28 God blessed them and told them, "Multiply and fill the earth and subdue it. (have lots of sex) Be masters over the fish and birds and all the animals."

29 And God said, "Look! I have given you the seed-bearing plants throughout the earth and all the fruit trees for your food. 30 And I have given all the grasses and other green plants to the animals and birds for their food." And so it was.

31 Then God looked over all he had made, and he saw that it was excellent in every way.  (100% of his creation was 100% open public nudity and 100% open public sex with many partners to populate the earth) This all happened on the sixth day.

Gen 2:8 Then the LORD God planted a garden in Eden, in the east, and there he placed the man he had created. 9 And the LORD God planted all sorts of trees in the garden – beautiful trees that produced delicious fruit. At the center of the garden he placed the tree of lifeand the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.

Gen 2:25 Now, although Adam and his wife were both naked, neither of them felt any shame  (they were 100% nudity and 100% open public sex with many partners) (Just like human he created one male and one female of each animal, but later they clearly were programmed by God to have sex with many sex partners, just like humans)

Gen 3:3 "It's only the fruit from the tree at the center of the garden that we are not allowed to eat. God says we must not eat it or even touch it, or we will die." 4 "You won't die!" the serpent hissed. 5 "God knows that your eyes will be opened when you eat it. You will become just like God, knowing everything, both good and evil." (they die spiritually, not physical death. Sin separated them from God. Sin caused corrupt thinking, opposite of God’s thinking, God ways are not man’s corrupt thinking ways)

6 The woman was convinced. The fruit looked so fresh and delicious, and it would make her so wise! So she ate some of the fruit. She also gave some to her husband, who was with her. Then he ate it, too.

7 At that moment, their eyes were opened,( They sinned and got corrupt thinking opposite God’s thinking) and they suddenly felt shame at their nakedness. So they strung fig leaves together around their hips to cover themselves. 8 Toward evening they heard the LORD God walking about in the garden, so they hid themselves among the trees. ." (sin caused corrupt thinking about nudity and sexuality, opposite of God’s thinking, God ways are not man’s ways.  Sin caused spiritual (death) separation from God. Sinner want to hid from God, guilt over their sin and fear of punishment. Faulty corrupt thinking they thought they could hide from God behind trees. We continue copying Adam and Eve corrupt thinking  today.)

Titus 1:15 Everything is pure to those whose hearts are pure. But nothing is pure to those who are corrupt and unbelieving, because their minds and consciences are defiled.

Gen 3:9 The LORD God called to Adam,  "Where are you?" 10 He replied, "I heard you, so I hid. I was afraid because I was naked." (Adams was afraid because he disobey God, his master, and creator, and with sinful, corrupt thinking, called God’s nudity and sexy creation a sin.)

11 "Who told you that you were naked?" ( God did not tell them. 100% Man made human shame and guilt trip, not God’s) the LORD God asked."Have you eaten the fruit I commanded you not to eat?" (Have you disobey me? Did you get  corrupt, confused thinking?  Have you died spiritually? Sin cause separation from God)12 "Yes," Adam admitted, "but it was the (beautiful, sexy, great sex that I did not want to leave her,and did not want to be without her,  I did what she did ) woman you gave me who brought me the fruit, and I ate it." 13 Then the LORD God asked the woman, "How could you do such a thing?""The serpent tricked me," she replied. "That's why I ate it."

14 So the LORD God said to the serpent, "Because you have done this, you will be punished. You are singled out from all the domestic and wild animals of the whole earth to be cursed. (only one animal was punished not any others, animals did not sin, they did not get human corrupt thinking, there nudity and sexuality continue on as God created them to be, only human changed and did the opposite of God’s plan.)

16 Then he said to the woman, "You will bear children with intense pain and suffering. And though your desire will be for your husband,  he will be your master."

17 And to Adam he said, "Because you listened to your wife and ate the fruit I told you not to eat, I have placed a curse on the ground. All your life you will struggle to scratch a living from it. 18 It will grow thorns and thistles for you, though you will eat of its grains. 19 All your life you will sweat to produce food, until your dying day.Then you will return to the ground from which you came. For you were made from dust, and to the dust you will return." (Adam and Eve never ate of the tree of life or tree of Eternal life, their physical body make from dust was not planned on living forever. God needs to transforms our body so it can then live forever when they eat from the tree of eternal life, Today Jesus is the tree of life. Today we get back to God by Jesus. We get back to where Adam and Eve were before the sin (Jesus removes all the sin and put it on the cross)and we get the tree of life of eternal life, all from Jesus. Jesus reverses the spiritual death cause  by Adam and Eve’s sin. )

20 Then Adam named his wife Eve,  because she would be the mother of all people everywhere.

21 And the LORD God made clothing from animal skins for Adam and his wife. (Rom 14:14 “I know and am perfectly sure on the authority of the Lord Jesus that no food, in and of itself, is wrong to eat. But if someone believes it is wrong, then for that person it is wrong.” 100% man made sin.   Because of man’s corrupt thinking,  caused man made shame and  guilt trip.  Humans called God’s nudity and sexualitycreation design a sin. God give them animal skins to wear. God’screation still have 100% open public nudity and 100% open public sex with many partners with no shame and no guilt.   Only sinful,  corrupt thinking humans changed their thinking to opposite of God’s thinking.)

(Titus 1:15 Everything is pure to those whose hearts are pure. But nothing is pure to those who are corrupt and unbelieving, because their minds and consciences are defiled.)

22 Then the LORD God said, "The people have become as we are, knowing everything, both good and evil. What if they eat the fruit of the tree of life? Then they will live forever!" 23 So the LORD God banished Adam and his wife from the Garden of Eden, and he sent Adam out to cultivate the ground from which he had been made. 24 After banishing them from the garden, the LORD God stationed mighty angelic beings  to the east of Eden. And a flaming sword flashed back and forth, guarding the way to the tree of life.

(The tree of life gave eternal life. Adam and Eve did not have eternal life. Their body made of dust was going to return to dust anyway, until they ate of the tree of life and then there body would be transformed to an eternal body. Today, Jesus is the tree of eternal life.)

God’s design of 100% public nudity  and public sex with many partner was never a sin. But became man made thinking,  it is a sin to man, man made sin,  from man corrupt thinking. Not from God. This shame and guilt is 100% corrupt man made thinking,  not from God and not God’s thinking. Rom 14:14 .” But if someone believes it is wrong, then for that person it is wrong.” )

(Animal did not sin. Animals did not get human corrupt thinking. Animals still have no shame and no guilt from nudity and open sex with many partners. Only a man made shame and guilt from human corrupt thinking.)

**********************************************************************

Until man thinking got corrupted by sin by disobeying the creator and taking on the tree of judge. Judging right from wrong or good from evil. But this is from corrupt human thinking.

Titus 1:15 Everything is pure to those whose hearts are pure. But nothing is pure to those who are corrupt and unbelieving, because their minds and consciences are defiled.

God’s ways are  not man’s ways. God’s thinking is not Man’s thinking. Humans now think opposite of God. What God calls good, men call evil.

God created 100% of his creation it is 100% open public nudity, and 100% open public sex with many partners. First thing corrupt, sinful, human did after sinning against God,  was hide from God behind trees, hide his body from God and others, and have shame and guilt over nudity and sexuality opposite of God plan.

God make human nature and God saw that it was excellent in every way. This still includes nudity and sexuality. But not what we have added: corrupt thinking, calling God’s creation evil, calling nudity and sex evil, hiding from God, worshipping other gods, not love others the way God want us to love them, selfish, greed, jealousy, envy, pride, harming others, killing, hurting others, bad gossip about others, and others. Our corrupt thinking added these things to God’s design human nature. We should not call God’s human nature evil. Only what we added to it is evil.

Animals did not get this corrupt thinking and just follow instinct as God programmed them to be. 100% open public nudity and 100% open public sex with many partners, with no shame and no guilt,  as God’s plan. Human have corrupt thinking not the animals. Humans are the sinners, not the animals. 100% open public nudity and open public sexuality with many partner is God’s thinking and God’s ideal and man do the opposite of God’s thinking and call it evil in their corrupt thinking.

Bonobo is  the close animal to human.   We can get an ideal of how we could live in peace and harmony. Bonobos have 100% open public nudity  and 100% open public sex with many partner with no man made  shame and no man made guilt trip. They use sexuality to solve any and all stress problems. Anytime the male have stress, the female steps in and has sex with the males. This releases all the stress and the stress problem goes away and they live in peace and harmony.

Are Bonobos smarter then the Human?  We have dominion over animals but animal do not have the corrupt thinking like human have. We have corrupt thinking the opposite of God. We act like the other chimp who doesn’t share sex partners. They fight and kill and have a lot of stress. The stress leads to violence’s, killing, strife, sin of jealousy, stealing other man’s woman, just like humans act today.

Even if something is holy and pure in God’s eyes, Rom 14:14 says if a person thinks something is a sin in his mind, then to that person it is a sin.

In Gods eyes 100% open public nudity and 100% open public sex with many partners is holy and pure and 100% Gods design for us. But because of human sin, it corrupt man’s thinking to call impure what God make pure.  From man make corrupt thinking we get faulty man made shame and guilt trips. God’s plan was for us to be more like the Bonobos, but better, and smarter, without the corrupt thinking.

Titus 1:15 Everything is pure to those whose hearts are pure. But nothing is pure to those who are corrupt and unbelieving, because their minds and consciences are defiled.

205 Arguments and Observations In Support of Nudist

Below is the General list,  Above has the same with many more notes to back it up.

Nudity is oftenmore comfortable and practical than clothing.

1. There aretimes when clothing is physically uncomfortable. Nudity, on the other hand, isoften much more comfortable.
2. For manyactivities, nudity is often far more practical than clothing.
3. Clothingalso restricts movement, and encumbers the athlete. Studies done by the WestGerman Olympic swim team showed that even swimsuits slow down a swimmer.
4. A nudist isnot a body lacking something (that is, clothing). Rather, a clothed person is awhole and complete naked body, plus clothes.
5. Manypsychologists say that clothing is an extension of ourselves. The clothes wewear are an expression of who we are. The Naturist's comfort with casualnudity, therefore, represents an attitude which is comfortable with the self asit is in its most basic state, without modification or deceit.
6.Clothes-compulsiveness creates insecurity about one's body. Studies show thatnudism, on the other hand, promotes a positive body self-concept.
7. Nudismpromotes wholeness of body, rather than setting aside parts of the body asunwholesome and shameful.
8.Clothes-compulsiveness locks us into a constant battle between individualityand conformity of dress. Nudity frees us from this anxiety, by fostering aclimate of comfortable individuality without pretense.
9. The practiceof nudism is, for nudists, an immensely freeing experience. In freeing oneselfto be nude in the presence of others, including members of the other sex, thenudist also gives up all the social baggage that goes along with the nuditytaboo.
10. The senseof "freedom" that comes from the nudist experience is consistentlyrated by nudists as one of the main reasons they stay in it.
11. Nudism, byfreeing the body, helps free the mind and spirit. An irrationalclothes-compulsiveness may inhibit psychological growth and health.
12. The nudist,literally, has nothing to hide. He or she therefore has less stress, a factsupported by research.
13. Clothinghides the natural diversity of human body shapes and sizes. When people arenever exposed to nudity, they grow up with misunderstandings and unrealistic expectationsabout the body based on biased or misinformed sources--for instance, fromadvertising or mass media.
14. Clothinghides and therefore creates mystery and ignorance about natural body processes,such as pregnancy, adolescence, and aging. Children (and even adults) who growup in a nudist environment have far less anxiety about these natural processesthan those who are never exposed to them.
15. Childrenare not born with any shame about nudity. They learn to be ashamed of their ownnudity.
16. Shame, withrespect to nudity, is relative to individual situations and customs, notabsolute.
17. Thedominant idea that clothing is necessary for reasons of modesty is a culturalassumption. It is an assumption that is not shared by all cultures, nor by allmembers of our own culture.
18. There isevidence that modesty is not related to nakedness at all, but is rather aresponse to appearing different from the rest of the social group--forinstance, outside the accepted habits of clothing or adornment.
19. Shame comesfrom being outside mores, not from specific actions or conditions. Becausenudity is unremarkable in a nudist setting, nudists may even forget that theyare nude--and often do.
20.Psychological studies have shown that modesty need not be related to one'sstate of dress at all. For the nudist, modesty is not shed with one's clothes;it merely takes a different form.
21. Manyindigenous tribes go completely naked without shame, even today. It is onlythrough extended contact with the "modern" world that they learn tobe "modest."
22. Even inNorth America, nudity was commonplace among many indigenous tribes prior to thearrival of Europeans.
23. For someindigenous tribes, nudity or near-nudity is an essential part of their culture.
24. Yetmissionaries have consistently sought to impose their own concepts of"decency" on other cultures, ignoring the elaborate culturaltraditions regarding dress already in place.
25. Mostanthropologists consider modesty an unlikely reason for the development ofclothes.
26. Manypsychologists and anthropologists believe that modesty about exposure of thebody may well be a result of wearing clothes, rather than its cause.
27. It isinteresting to note that it is only possible to be immodest once an acceptedform of modesty has been established.
28. Modestywith respect to nudity is a social phenomenon, not biologically instinctive.This is evidenced by the fact that nudity is venerated in art.
29. Nudity isnot, by itself, erotic, and nudity in mixed groups is not inherently sexual.These are myths propagated by a clothes-obsessed society. Sexuality is a matterof intent rather than state of dress.
30. Nudists, asa group, are healthier sexually than the general population.
31. Sexualsatisfaction in married couples shows a correlation to their degree of comfortwith nudity.
32. Studiesshow significantly less incidence of casual premarital and extramarital sex,group sex, incest, and rape among nudists than among non-nudists.
33. Studieshave demonstrated that countries with fewer hangups about nudity have lowerteen pregnancy and abortion rates.
34. Clothesenhance sexual mystery and the potential for unhealthy sexual fantasies.
35. Clothingfocuses attention on sexuality, not away from it; and in fact often enhancesimmature forms of sexuality, rather than promoting healthy body acceptance.
36. Completenudity is antithetic to the elaborate semi-pornography of the fashion industry.
37. Clothingoften focuses attention on the genitals and sexual arousal, rather than awayfrom them.
38. The fashionindustry depends on the sex appeal of clothing.
39. Differencesof clothing between the sexes focus attention on sex differences.
40. Manypsychologists believe that clothing may originally have developed, in part, asa means of focusing sexual attention.
41. Partialclothing is more sexually stimulating (in often unhealthy ways) than fullnudity.
42.Modesty--especially enforced modesty--only adds to sexual interest and desire.
female exposure allegedly inspires."
43. Topfree inequality (requiring women, but not men,to wear tops) produces an unhealthy obsession with breasts as sexual objects.
44. Theidentification of breasts as sexual objects in our culture has led to thediscouragement of breast-feeding, the encouragement of unnecessary cosmeticsurgery for breast augmentation, and avoidance of necessary breast examinationsby women.
45. Naturism isthe antithesis of pornography.
46. Pornographyhas been defined as an attempt to exert power over nature. In most cases in ourculture, it manifests itself as an expression of sexual power by men overwomen. Naturism, by contrast, seeks to coexist with nature and with each other,and to accept each other and the natural world in our most natural states.
47.Non-acceptance and repression of nudity fuels pornography by teaching that anyform and degree of nudity is inherently sexual and pornographic.
48. Naturism isinnocent, casual, non-exploitative, and non-commercial (and yet is oftensuppressed); as opposed to pornography, which is commercialized andsensationalized (and generally tolerated).
49. Manypsychologists believe that repression of a healthy sexuality leads to a greatercapacity for, and tendency toward, violence.
50. Clothinglimits or defeats many of the natural purposes of skin: for example, repellingmoisture, drying quickly, breathing, protecting without impeding performance,and especially sensing one's environment.
51. Exposure tothe sun, without going overboard, promotes general health.
52. Recentresearch has suggested an inverse relationship between solar exposure andosteoporosis, colon cancer, breast cancer, and even the most deadly form ofskin cancer, malignant melanoma.
53. Anobsessive sense of modesty about the body often correlates with a reluctance toshare healthy forms of touch with others.
54. Tightclothing may cause health problems by restricting the natural flow of blood andlymphatic fluid.
55. Clothingcan harbor disease-causing bacteria and yeast (especially underclothing andathletic clothing).
56. Medicalresearch has linked clothing to an increased susceptibility to bites and stingsby animals such as ticks and sea lice, which hide in or get trapped inclothing.
57. Clothingfashions throughout history, especially for women, have often been damaging tophysical and psychological health.
58. The ideathat clothing is necessary for support of the genitals or breasts is oftenunwarranted.
59. Clothinghides the natural beauty of the human body, as created by God.
60. Clothingmakes people look older, and emphasizes rather than hides unflattering bodycharacteristics.
61. Clothingharbors and encourages the growth of odor-causing bacteria.
62. Naturism isa socially constructive philosophy.
63. Naturism,by philosophy, is tolerant of others and their differences. It expects only thesame in return.
64. Nuditypromotes social equality, feelings of unity with others, and more relaxedsocial interaction in general. As mentioned earlier, clothing locks us into acollective unreality that prescribes complex responses to social status, rolesand expected behaviors. As the artificial barrier of clothing is done awaywith, social class and status disappear. People begin to relate to each otheras they are, and not as they seem to be.
65. Naturiststend to be especially accepting of other people, just as they are. This is anattitude that is undoubtedly related to the fact that Naturists are generallymore accepting of their own bodies, just as they are, than the general public.
66. Sociallyand demographically, nudists are almost exactly like the rest of thepopulation, except that they are tolerant of nudity. There are few othertrends, social or psychological, positive or negative, that correlate to astatistically significant degree with nudists as a demographic group.
67. Naturismrejects blind conformity to cultural mores and assumptions about the body,which see clothing as a constant necessity, in favor of a more reasoned,rational approach which recognizes the need for clothing to be dependent oncontext.
68. ForAmericans, non-acceptance and sexualization of their own nudity encourages abiased or racist attitude contrasting "clothed civilization" againstthe "naked savage."
69. Truenudists emphasize a decent, family atmosphere and morality.
70.Researchshows that children who grow up in a nudist setting tend to be moreself-confident, more self-accepting, and more sexually well-adjusted. They feelbetter about their bodies, and more comfortable with their sexuality.
71. In general,"experts" such as Joyce Brothers and Dr. Spock speak out againstfamily nudity without empirical evidence to back them up. When research isactually done, it contradicts their dire warnings.
72. Mostcommentators say that it's the context in which family nudity takes place, notthe nudity itself, that determines whether it's problematic. Children respondfar more to parents' attitudes toward nudity than to the nudity itself, andnudity is only a problem when it is treated as one.
73. Manypsychologists argue that the implicit message conveyed by a lack of nudity inthe home is that the body is basically unacceptable or shameful--an attitudewhich may carry over into discomfort about nudity in the context of adultsexual relationships.
74. Children of"primitive" tribes, surrounded by nudity of all forms, suffer no illeffects. Neither do children who grow up in other societies which are more openabout nudity than our own. Presumptions that exposure to nudity will lead toproblems for children grow out of the preconceptions of our culture.
75. Childrenwho grow up in a nudist environment witness the natural body changes brought onby adolescence, pregnancy, and aging. They have far less anxiety about thesenatural processes than children who are never exposed to them except throughlayers of clothing.
76. Researchhas demonstrated that countries with fewer reservations about nudity (andsexuality in general) also have lower teen pregnancy and abortion rates.
77.Clothes-compulsion intimidates millions of mothers from breast-feeding theirchildren, even though breast-feeding is healthier and often more convenient forboth the child and the mother.
78. Therepression of healthy nudity, especially for females, has been one of the chiefmeans of mind and destiny control by the patriarchy. Breaking this patternshatters the invisible bonds of an inherited sex role.
79. Limitationson women's nudity, an acceptance of pornography, and demanding fashionrequirements may, individually, seem like minor issues. Taken as a whole,however, they form a pattern of repressive male-oriented expectations.
80. Topfreeinequality (requiring women, but not men, to wear tops) is demeaning anddiscriminatory toward women, and reinforces patterns of male domination overwomen.
81. Lawsbanning exposure of female breasts do so in part because of the reaction suchexposure would supposedly cause in men. Such laws are written entirely from themale point of view, and ignore the point of view of women, who may want to gotopfree for their own comfort.
82. By refusingto accept the need to "protect" themselves from men by covering theirbodies, women gain power, and shift the burden of responsible behavior to men,where it rightfully belongs.
83. Patriarchallaws strip women of the right to control their own bodies, but there havealways been "exceptions" to obscenity laws which permit the use ofwomen's bodies in consumer seduction. Thus female nudity is consideredinappropriate on the beach, but is ubiquitous in advertising and pornography.
84. Byenforcing arbitrary clothing requirements for women (requiring them to covertheir tops), the government acts in loco parentis, in the role of a parent.This is demeaning to women. Like children, they aren't conceded the ability orright to decide how to dress, much as they formerly weren't allowed to vote,own property, or exercise other rights.
85. Therepression of healthy female nudity fuels pornography.
86.Pornography, in turn, limits women's ability to participate in healthy nuderecreation, and to be casually nude in other ways. Naturism breaks the power ofpornography over women.
87. The fightfor freedom should mean civil rights for women--not license for pornographers.
88. Clothingfashions and legal requirements have historically contributed to the repressionof women.
89. Naturismdefies relationships based on a balance of power, and is thus consistent withcontemporary feminism, which seeks to break down power hierarchies.
90. Naturism,as a celebration of the natural human body free of the artificiality offashion, is highly compatible with the ideals of a natural, simple, andenvironmentally friendly lifestyle.
91. As we workfor the good of nature, we must also work for the good and the freedom of ourbodies, especially as they may be integrated with the rest of nature.
92. The goalsof Naturism and environmentalism are often parallel. Like environmentalism,Naturism usually seeks to preserve the natural character of landscapes, andopposes development and commercial exploitation. The greatest risk to mostbeaches is not nudity, but development--the takeover of pristine public areasby private resorts or hotels.

93. One feelsmuch more a part of a natural setting in the nude than clothed.
94. The nudistis far more sensually aware, because nudity enhances responsiveness and sensoryexperience.
95. Clothingcuts us off from the natural world, by inhibiting the skin's ability to sensethe environment. It in fact distracts from our ability to sense the naturalenvironment, by artificially irritating the skin.
96.Clothes-compulsiveness is incompatible with the natural patterns of nature, asexpressed by every other member of the animal kingdom. Humans are the onlyspecies to clothe themselves.
97. Somepsychologists theorize that humans developed clothing, in part, to setthemselves apart from animals.
98. Thephysical barrier of clothing reinforces psychological barriers separating usfrom the natural world.
99. Lifestyleswhich are incompatible with the natural patterns of nature (includingclothes-obsessiveness) may be psychological damaging.
100. A Naturistlifestyle is more environmentally responsible. For example, the option of goingnude during hot, humid weather greatly reduces the need for air conditioning.Most air conditioners use tremendous amounts of energy, and many use coolantswhich are damaging to the stratospheric ozone layer.
101. Clothingis produced by environmentally irresponsible processes from environmentallyirresponsible sources.
102. Clothingstandards are inconsistent.
103. Clothing requirements are arbitrarily andirrationally based on gender.

104. Today in America, women's breasts are seen aserotic and unexposable, even though they are anatomically identical to those ofmen except for lactation capacity, and no more or less a sexual organ.
105. Thearbitrary nature of clothing requirements is reflected by different standardsin different cultures.
106. Thearbitrary nature of clothing requirements is reflected by history. Even in thesame culture, taboos about what parts of the body could or could not berevealed have changed radically over time.
107. Most worldsocieties are much more open about nudity than the United States. For example,many cultures, especially in Europe, are more open to nudity on beaches and inother recreational settings.
108.Participation in nudist organizations is high in other parts of the world.
109. Naturistvacations are a significant part of the tourist trade in many countries.
110. Nudity ismuch more common in foreign media.
111. Publicnudity, including clothing-optional recreation, enjoys growing acceptance inNorth America.
112. Membershipin nudist organizations is growing rapidly.
113. Thetourism industry is discovering that it is in their economic best interests toaccept clothing-optional recreation.
114. In a freesociety such as the United States, one's lifestyle should not be dictated byanyone else (majority or otherwise), especially if that lifestyle does notinfringe on anyone else's rights
115. TheConstitution was, in fact, written to protect the rights of minority points ofview. This principle alone should justify the right to recreate peacefully inthe nude without government interference.
116. TheConstitution has been interpreted to protect individual freedoms except wherethey are overridden by a "compelling state interest." It is never theresponsibility of individuals to justify their freedoms. It is rather theresponsibility of government to justify any restriction of freedom.
117. Naturismhas always claimed that nudity offers "freedom from bodilyrestraints." Such freedoms may only be restricted in the case of"compelling state interest;" if none can be shown, the restriction isinvalid.
118. TheConstitution has repeatedly been interpreted to protect the right ofindividuals to associate with others of similar philosophy, and also to raisetheir children in the context of a particular philosophy. This principleprotects the right of nudist families to associate and recreate in the nude.
119. The FirstAmendment guarantees the right to freedom of expression. This protects everyother form of clothing, and should protect the right not to wear clothing aswell.
120. Recentcourt decisions in Florida, New York, and elsewhere have upheld nudity as partof the expression of free speech.
121. The"body language" of the nude human form has extraordinary symbolic andcommunicative power which should be protected by the First Amendment.
122. TheSupreme Court has ruled that people can't be forced to communicate ideas theyoppose (for example, saying the Pledge of Allegiance). It has also ruled thatclothes can be a protected form of free speech (for instance, students andpublic employees had the right to wear black armbands to protest the VietnamWar). It is unconstitutional to force Naturists to express conformity to ideasof modesty and body shame that they disagree with, by forcing them to wearswimsuits at the beach.
123. The courtshave thus far permitted the publishers of pornography to express attitudeswhich are exploitative of women, on the grounds that this is protected freespeech; but it has been unsuitably reluctant to grant the same protection tothe natural expression of body freedom through casual, non-exploitative nudityon the beach.
124. Clothingis both publicly expressive and privately symbolic, connoting identity in aparticular cultural group. Restricting the state of dress of nudists is no lessrestrictive than prohibiting any other cultural group from wearing the clothingparticular to their group. Preventing nudists from going nude is equivalent topreventing a person of Scottish descent from wearing the family colors, orpreventing a priest from wearing his robes.
125. With theemergence of national organizations promoting nudism as a doctrine, nuderecreation may eventually come to be seen as a protected medium of speechexpressing that doctrine, and as an example of protected free association.
126. The NinthAmendment makes it clear that no freedoms shall be denied that are notspecifically prohibited. Thus, mere nudity is not illegal except where thereare specific laws that prohibit it.
127. Manyprohibitions against nudity stem, historically, from the political climate ofthe early Christian church. Even today, much of the objection to nudism isbased on religious principles. The constitutional separation of church andstate should make this an invalid argument.
128. Extensivelegal precedent suggests that laws requiring women, but not men, to concealtheir breasts are sexist, discriminatory, and unconstitutional.
129. Case history demonstrates that laws requiring women to cover their breasts are notjustified by cultural prejudices and preconceptions.
130. Lawsrequiring women, but not men, to cover their breasts are written entirely froma male perspective, assuming that men's bodies are natural and normal, and thatwomen's bodies must be covered because they are different.
131. Laws requiring women to cover their breasts are not justified by claims that women's bodies are significantly different from men's; nor by inaccurate claims thatbreasts are sex organs; nor by the fact that breasts may play a role in sex orsex play; nor by the fact that breasts are prominent secondary sex characteristics.
132. Mere nudity is not in itself lewd or "indecent exposure," a distinctionupheld by extensive legal precedent nationwide.
133. Mere nudity cannot be offensive or immoral "conduct"--for it is not conduct at all, but merely the natural state of a human being.
134. Given the challenge of defining modesty standards, which are by nature ambiguous,legislators have often found it to be more complicated to prohibit nudity thanto sanction it.
135. A largeportion of state and local government anti-nudity regulations have beenlegislated by individual high officials or small groups, without public review.This is undemocratic and contrary to the principle of due process.
136. Byextensive legal precedent, it is unquestionably legal to be nude in private, onprivate property.
137. Many stateor local governments have also explicitly legislated the right to be nude indesignated public areas, such as legally-sanctioned nude beaches.
138. There isno universal federal prohibition against nudity on public land. In general,public land agencies view nude recreation--conducted with discretion andsensitivity to the varying values of others--as "legitimateactivity."
139. The nudeuse of most federal lands is, in fact, constitutional because there is nouniversal federal law prohibiting it. The Ninth Amendment specifically saysthat no freedoms shall be denied which are not specifically prohibited.
140. Themandate of public land agencies such as the U.S. Forest Service provide fordiversity of recreation. Historically, provisions have been made even forextreme minority forms of recreation. Recreational diversity ought to alsoinclude provisions for nude recreation.
141.Clothing-optional recreation is less offensive to most people than many otherforms of recreation which are openly tolerated and even promoted on publicland.
142. Naturistscertainly deserve at least as much consideration by land management agencies asresource-damaging activities such as off-road vehicle use.
143. TheWilderness Act of 1963 defined wilderness areas as "lands designated forpreservation and protection in their natural condition." They are to bemanaged in a manner that maintains them in as natural a state as possible. Itfollows that human should be able to enjoy wilderness areas in their own mostnatural state, free from the artificial constraints of clothing.
144. Publicwilderness areas ought to be places where human freedoms, including nuderecreation, are observed more freely than anywhere else. Wilderness should beour measure of carefully controlled anarchy, our refuge free of any but themost necessary intrusions by government rules and regulations. Do we not go towilderness for these very reasons, and would it not be compromised by undueoutside interference, such as unnecessary clothing regulations?
145. Recreationmanagers unfortunately often "solve" the issue of nude recreation,not by managing it, but by ignoring it.
Thus managers"permit" nudity on remote beaches without facilities or lifeguards,then point to litter, drug use, and other problems as a consequence of thenudity rather than the lack of active management.
146. If publicnude recreation can be widely accepted in societies considered repressive byAmericans (for example, formerly-socialist Yugoslavia, once-communist EastGermany, Orthodox Greece, or Catholic France), it ought to be tolerated indemocratic Europe and in America, "the land of the free."
147.Anti-nudity laws are demeaning because they replace individual responsibilitywith state control.
148. It isinappropriate to use police resources to crack down on peaceful bathers at abeach simply because they are nude, while taking valuable resources away fromother more urgent needs.
149. It is acruel reversal of justice when the law frowns on innocent skinnydippers, whilegawkers on the fringe of the nude beach, who pervert and fetishize the body,are accepted as "normal."
150. Socialnudity is part of a long historical tradition. Recent Western civilizationstands almost alone, in the entire known history of humanity, in its repressivecode against nudity.
151. Nudity wascommonplace in the ancient Greek civilization, especially for men.
152. OldTestament ceremonial washings, including baptism, were performed in the nude.Christ, too, was probably baptized naked--as depicted in numerous early worksof art.
153. Romancitizens, including early Christians, bathed communally in the nude at thepublic baths throughout most of the second through the fourth centuries. Nuditywas also common during this period in other parts of ancient Roman society.
154. Thewritings of early Christians such as Irenaeus and Tertullian make it clear thatthey had no ethical reservations about communal nudity.
155. For thefirst several centuries of Christianity, it was the custom to baptize men,women, and children together nude. This ritual played a very significant rolein the early church. The accounts are numerous and detailed.
156. Nudity wascommon and accepted in pre-medieval (circa 6th century) society, especially inplaces like Great Britain, which had been "barbarian" lands only afew hundred years before.
157. Nudity wasfairly common in medieval and renaissance society, especially in the publicbaths and within the family setting.
158. Even inthe Victorian era, before the invention of bathing suits, swimming nude in theocean was commonplace; and music halls often featured nude models as living"sculpture."
159. Few peoplerealize that swimsuits, as we know them today, are a relatively recent concept.The idea of wearing special clothing to swim in is barely a century old.
160.Skinnydipping, in the local river or farm pond, is well-documented as animportant historical part of our national heritage.
161. Many YMCA,college, and high school male-only pools or swimming classes were historically"swimsuit-optional" or nude-only until federally-mandated "equalaccess" athletic programs (for the sake of women) were instituted in themid 1970s.
162. Today,there are still public locations where nudity is, by local tradition or custom,the accepted practice.
163. The fewofficially sanctioned nude beaches in the U.S. (for example, Rooster Rock StatePark, Oregon) and Canada (Wreck Beach, British Columbia)--and most of the unofficialbeaches as well--have existed for decades without significant problems.
164. Manyhighly respected people, historical and contemporary, have espoused and/orparticipated in Naturism to some degree.
165. Historically, a great many writers and artistshave regarded Naturism, or something close to it, to be part of the utopianideal.
166. Nudity hasoften been used, historically, as a symbol of protest or rebellion againstoppression.
167. Repressivemorality was developed by the state and the Church as a tool to maintaincontrol over otherwise free individuals.
168. Repressivemorality has often sought to control not only nudity, but sexuality in general.
169. Repressionof nudity is still used today as a means to further a repressive politicalagenda.
170. Much ofthe origin of repressive attitudes toward nudity may be traced to the politicalsetting of the early church and church-state, though not the teachings ofChrist Himself.
171. Theaversion of early Christian church leaders to casual nudity was due in part toan association of nudity with paganism and homosexuality in the surroundingcultures.
172. TheChurch's aversion to nudity derived, in part, from its roots in the cultures ofthe ancient Near East, where nakedness had signified poverty, shame, slavery,humiliation, and defeat. Naked, bound prisoners were paraded in the king'svictory celebration, and slain enemies were stripped of clothing and armor.
173. BeforeWestern civilization, nakedness was a normal element of life and consideredacceptable in many circumstances. However, as Freud describes in Civilizationand Its Discontents, psychological repression of the awareness of our naturalbeing was a necessary step in building civilization, by disciplining the massesinto taking part in vast and self-abdicating social projects.
174. Nudity hasoften been censored primarily to avoid the more difficult task of managing it.
175. Recreationmanagers often "permit" nudity on remote beaches without facilitiesor lifeguards, then use nudity as a scapegoat for problems including litter anddrug use that inevitably appear in high-use recreation areas without activemanagement.
176. One of thegreatest challenges faced by clothing-optional beaches is that theirpopularity, combined with their scarcity, leads to intensive use, which in turnconflicts with environmental and management concerns.
177. The"secondary effects" of an actively managed nude beach have in actualexperience proven to be less crime, less inappropriate behavior, no drugdealers, an increase in parking revenues, and an increase in business in theadjoining commercial area.
178. Nudity hasoften been repressed for economic reasons, not because it was consideredimmoral.
179. We mustnever forget that for any freedom that is lost, we bear partial responsibilityfor letting it be lost.
180. Genesis1:27--The (naked) human body, created by God, in God's own image, is basicallydecent, not inherently impure or sinful. The human body was created by God, andGod can create no evil. It is made in God's image, and the image of God isentirely pure and good.
181. Genesis1:31--God saw that everything, including naked Adam and Eve, was good.
182. Genesis3:7--Many scholars interpret the wearing of fig leaves as a continuation andexpansion of the original sin, not a positive moral reaction to it.
183. Genesis3:10--Many scholars believe that Adam and Eve's sense of shame came not fromtheir nakedness, which God had created and called good, but from theirknowledge of having disobeyed God.
184. An innate,God-given sense of shame related to nakedness is contradicted by the existenceof numerous indigenous societies in which nudity is the rule and a sense ofshame is totally absent, and by the lack of shame felt by naked children.
185. Genesis3:11--It was disobedience that came between Adam and Eve and God, notnakedness. The scriptures themselves treat Adam and Eve's nudity as anincidental issue.
186. Genesis3:21--God made garments of skins for Adam, but the Bible does not say the stateof nakedness is being condemned. Because of the Fall, Adam and Eve were nolonger in Eden and were thus subject to the varieties of weather and climate,and God knew they would need clothes. God loved and cared for them even afterthey had sinned.
187. To assumethat because God made garments He was condemning nudity makes as much sense asconcluding that because God made clouds which blot out the sun He wascondemning sunshine.
188. Genesis9:22-24--Noah was both drunk and naked, but Ham was the one who wascursed--when he dishonored his father, by calling attention to Noah's state,and making light of it.
189. Exodus20:26--The Priest's nakedness was not to be exposed because it would createdissonance between his social role, in which he was to be seen as sexuallyneutral, and his biological status as a sexual being. The Priest's costumerepresented his social role; to be exposed in that context would beinappropriate and distracting.
190. Leviticus18:6-19--Here and throughout the Old Testament and Torah, the expression"uncover the nakedness of" (as it is literally translated in the KingJames Version) is a euphemism for "have sexual relations with." Theprohibitions do not refer to nudity per se.
191. I Samuel19:23-24--Jewish prophets were commonly naked--so commonly that when Saulstripped off his clothes and prophesied, no one considered his nakednessremarkable, but everyone immediately assumed that he must be a prophet also.
192. II Samuel6:14-23--King David danced nearly naked in the City of David to celebrate thereturn of the ark, in full view of all the citizens of the city. Michalcriticized his public nudity and was rebuffed.
193. Isaiah20:2-3--God directly commanded Isaiah to loose the sackcloth from his hips, andhe went naked and barefoot for three years. The prophet Micah may have done thesame thing (see Micah 1:8).
194. Song ofSolomon repeatedly expresses appreciation for the naked body.
195. EveryBiblical association of nakedness with shame is in reference to a sin alreadycommitted. One cannot hide from God behind literal or figurative clothing. Allstand naked before God.
196. Nakednesscannot automatically be equated with sexual sin.
197. Nakednesscannot automatically be associated with lust.
198. Manyhistorical church leaders have disassociated nudity with sexual immodesty. St.Thomas Aquinus, for example, defined an immodest act as one done with a lustfulintention. Therefore, someone who disrobes for the sole purpose of bathing orrecreating cannot be accused of immodesty.
199. ThroughChrist, the Christian is returned spiritually to the same sinless, shamelessstate Adam and Eve enjoyed in Eden (Genesis 2:25). There is no question thattheir nakedness was not sinful. When God creates, nakedness is good. It followsthat when God re-creates, nakedness is also good.
200. The Biblesays plainly that sexual immorality is sin. Healthy Naturism, however, isentirely consistent for the Christian, who has "crucified the sinfulnature with its passions and desires." (Galatians 5:24)
201. The Biblecalls for purity of heart. Anyone who thinks it is impossible to be pure ofheart while nude is ignorant of the realities of nudism, and anyone who believethat it is wrong even for the pure of heart to be nude has fallen intolegalism, a vice which St. Paul repeatedly denounces.
202.Clothes-compulsiveness creates an unwholesome schism between one's spirit andbody. A Christian morality should deal with the person as a whole, healing bothspirit and body.
203. Nudity hasoften been used in the Christian tradition as symbolic of renouncing the worldto follow Christ
204. Many otherfaiths also support nudity, both historically and in current practice.
205. One of the most important arguments insupport of nudism is personal experience. Personal testimonies in favor ofnudism are too numerous to mention. Based on my own experience, I find nudiststo be more friendly, open-minded, considerate, respectful, and sharing thannon-nudists in general. Their children are more active, and healthier, bothphysically and mentally. None of these testimonies, of course, compares topersonal experience. A single visit to a nudist park or a nude beach will notcause permanent harm to anyone. On the other hand, it may change your life.Experience the freedom for yourself!
