And if we were being heretical, you'd absolutely be right. However, your posts absolutely show a very unloving, uncaring nature. They're equivalent to: "We don't agree with you, so we'll throw you out of the herd to be devoured by wolves." Good job. That's more heretical to God's Word than being naked.


As stated earlier, it seems you see what you want to see. Your arguments have been refuted again and again. Yet, you are so focused on your lifestyle, it is of such importance to you, that you refuse to concede that you may actually be wrong. While you also claim you are looking out for others, that you would not invite others into nudism if they were not open to to it. Yet, after hearing more than enough oposition to your lifestyle, you continue to try and convince others to "have an open mind." You speak as if you really know the minds of those you associate with in your nude community. Yet, after 16 years of working in corrections, trying to change behavior by changing values, attitudes and beliefs, I have learned that people don't know even those within their own homes as well as they think they do. Sexual sin exists in secret and yet occurs out in the open before the eyes of trusted people. All too often, we don't want to see the sin occurring before our eyes because we want to continue being friends with the sinner. We don't want to have to kill the sin because it means we have to examine the log in our own eye. It's easier to just pretend that everything is copasthetic. If your lifestyle is that important to you, then go hang out with that community where you can be affirmed and validated. Shake the dust from your feet and tell your friends how cold the clothed Christian community is.

I only have one more question for you. It seems I have asked several questions that you have not answered. Instead you have taken my statements you disagre with and tackled the questions. What got you interested in nudism to begin with?


What? No they haven't! 90% of the posts have been equivalent to "well, you're still evil." There has been little refutation, all of which I've come back with valid answers to. I'm the one refuting your statements again and again. Seems you see what you want to see.

You are so focused on your lifestyle, it is of such importance to you, that you refuse to concede that you may actually be wrong.

And my statement about those within the lifestyle is as it has always been: sexual sin occurs no matter what the environment. Simply being naked doesn't change that fact, and it doesn't make it any more likely. Your attack continues to be an association fallacy, and no amount of conviction on your part about it will change that.

What got me interested to begin with? Quite simple: I've always been more comfortable out of clothes than in them. If I missed that question previously, I apologize.

Ok. If you don't want to be nude in an appropriate place, then don't. If you do, fine. It is only a sin if you do something sinful while nude (lust or other sins along those lines). Honestly, this kind of falls under legalism. If being a nudist does not hinder your walk with christ then no harm has been done.
