Where do you live?

I am on the west coast, but I wast just kidding. They are having nude bike rides in almost every country.

Would a Christian nudist ever do something like this?

I certainly would...

I have a friend who road in the Boston one. He is Jewish. I'd have to get my bike fixed 1st.

If I could ride down my driveway nude all the way to the bike ride starting point I would. Just don't dare me! LOL.

If it is ok to go to a health club and be nude all day in the pool or sauna is it ok to go to a friends house and have a nude pool party and BBQ or just exercise nude by your own pool etc?

I've been at freinds house and been nude in their watsu pool. Its quite big, so 10 or 12 people could be in it at a time.

I swam nude in my sister's pool several times (when she had one).

If anyone here was skinny dipping and someone dropped by the pool would you cover up or continue swimming? Did you get embarrassed? I wish I could keep swimming and just talk to them like it was no big deal.

What was your experience?

I have never been in that position, but I would certainly not be embarrassed.

If I were in an area where nudity could reasonably be expected (like a health club), I would continue on being nude;

If the visitor(s) were friends of my host and might not be expecting nudity, I might get out and wrap up in my towel or move to the far end of the pool, out of courtesy.

I was at a party a friend throws every year. Its clothing optional. So I was naked and setting up a tent to sleep in that night when a lady I know drove up. I went over to say hi and gave her a hug. She brought a friend who I said hi to and ask if she wanted a hug from a naked guy. Yes. So I hugged her.
Its just like with clothes on, tho makes for fun stories to blow other peoples minds.

Wow. I don't know any friends that would have a clothing optional party. How do I get invited to one?

If a friend invited you to a play that had nudity, it could be a Christian play, would you go to it?

If the play was about the garden of Eden before man disobeyed.

I think there are nudist groups in every major city. If a Christian is a nudist I think its great to join and let ones light shine there. I was at a clothing optional workshop this weekend. There was an exercise for expressing appreciation and I had a lady come up to me and express that she thought it was awesome and even a little awestruck that I've been able to be as free as I am and remain faithful to my faith. When she felt she wanted to be free she felt she had to jettison her Christianity. Later I had another woman come up to me and ask me in front of 6 people about my faith. So I got to spend the next 20 mins expressing how I see what Jesus said. When I was involved in ever church service, I had a lot of great fellowship, but I didn't have anyone inviting me to tell them about my faith in Christ.

I did several years ago. One of my nephews was in a college production of Hair (with the nude scene). I went to see it, along with my mom and a friend of hers.

None of us was shocked; it was actually quite emotional and effective.

Nudity is not sin...but what one does with nudity...that is wrong.The Bible says if something is not of faith it is a sin...and being a naturist and Pastor myself... It is my opinion that Christ van be expressed as a lawyer...chemist...farmer...teacher judge and a naturist...but of the eñtire focus is only nudism...tjen thats wrong....bit of my identity is Christ in me....thats different

The problem I have with Christian natirist sites..is that they discuss everything and anything except Christ centeredness.They discuss holiday camps...naturist resorts...gardening etc.,everything but Christian doctrine...scripture etc.Why is that?As Christians...blood washed...redeemed and born again..surely we have more to talk about than resorts...gardening etc.We have the best topic to discuss...Christ Himself...why is Christ always abscent from these discussions?

Because it is a bunch of nudists looking to justify their behavior with Christianity. Their main goal is not Christ-likeness, but being naked.
