If God wanted us to be covered all the time He would have made us with fur like all the rest of the mammals.God didn't tell them to be ashamed of their nakedness, Satin told them to be ashamed. God made them clothing out of animal skins just before He put them out or Eden because they would need the clothing to deal with the degraded environment outside of the garden. He didn't make them clothes to cover their nakedness, He made them clothes for practical reasons.We today should follow God's example and wear clothes where it is practical for protection from the elements or injury, but be nude where appropriate.
Well said. I agree. However, it's only appropriate where it's too cold or where clothing is required for occupational safety reasons. Otherwise, everyone should be naked and barefoot at all times and in all places. Without exception.
I agree being naked and sex is a natural thing God wants but this society want to say its wrong and turn away from something that is natural.
Yes, I agree with the previous post I now have quoted today just above this current post.
Absolutely, rather similar mindset going on with many christians as an unfortunate trend to "Shunning Nudity" right now.
Lots of people have opinions about both nudity and sex.
Yes.
But that does not mean all the opinions are going to be correct to anyone, let alone all opinions being correct to everyone.
And what I am saying right now is a small phrase I created: "nudity and sex are natural, why else are they there?"
My personal position is just to look at the needs of people, and meet people "where they already are" instead of "insisting on the ways of living we present," so we can be diplomatic. And to find what is kind and respectful and dignifying in the other person, and to love our neighbors.
I think diplomacy is all the more important, and to have clear vision on how to handle when people are more incorrect than incorrect.
The more obviously incorrect a person is, the less willing we become to be diplomatic is a good thing, but only to be cautious against callousness in the more obviously incorrect kinds of callousness.
I also believe as much as possible that people should be diplomatic to others as the initial instinct and to continue as much as is practical, and to really try to give other's thoughts and ideas the benefit of the doubt to not be rough to people and instead to be diplomatic as a course of action instead, in every interpersonal interaction.
Some people do make it more difficult, when some people become less consistently co-operative. That is our problem when we do not recognize the hardships we do to ourselves by working in or around relationships with people who make life more troubling for ourselves. Judgement, however is reserved only for when we know are correct, but some people are always correct about how bad life can be and how a few certain people often can be.
But again, to quote the good book, ""Why look at the speck in your Neighbor's eye rather than the log in your own Eye?"" Matthew 7:3-5 this wording in Matthew is a great warning to all of us to not look hypocritically at people without critically examining ourselves. the good book also continues, saying ""first take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take the speck out of your neighbor's eye."" in Matthew Chapter Seven continuing from the previous verse, saying not to look with judgement, at a minimum not to look with judgement before self-conscious self-examination.
It also is a two-way street, for any human being, and for any Christian of any kind. Always take out the "log in our own eyes" before passing judgement.
I am glad to see people are catching on to the good aspects of nudist christianity. It always helps.
I think partner respect and intimacy in dating and relationships is a modern part of the Christian life, and that a really good outlook is to be consequential, in all actions, of what you deliberately try to do with life.
Again, I always try to live by "judge not, lest you be judged by someone else," meaning at least as much that the other person will be able to reflect back our judgement to them, as is mentioned in the sermon on the mount, in Matthew 7:1-3.
Thank you for your time, and I wish everyone a pleasant day and I await feed back on this particular post quoting the bible.
I also think laws being obeyed to a reasonable level is a part of christianity, but some laws definitely can deserve to be repealed, wherever people are in the world.
I think shunning also is rather harmful.
I would rather be able to win over through diplomacy, wherever possible.
Anyone can be diplomatic. The hard solution is to be appropriately averse to the illness of life, and to make the correct judgement as an individual to restrict ourselves from making "the wrong move" and is part of basic workplace psychology.
A lot of what some parts of the bible talk about, a lot of it does read or sound when reading aloud like an instruction book. And it contains workplace and social psychology elements. I do like reading the bible to at least try to know what Jesus had to say about all of these things.
Okay, I now am off my stump speech, thanks for reading. Thanks to the original post on this thread also, good topic from boundlessnudist.
Let's keep the conversation going from here.
