I'm not surprised they gave you the flick. Completely inappropriate for grown men to be walking around in public naked let alone enticing kids to do the same. If you want to get around naked in the privacy of your own home thats your right to do so but you need to realise that the vast majority of people do not consider it normal. Wouldn't it be easier to just put on some clothes?
You are also completely ignorant about the Bible's stance on naturism. Here are some verses to prove that God does not have a problem with human nakedness:
Go and read Isaiah 20:2.
"2 at the same time the LORD spoke by Isaiah the son of Amoz, saying, Go, and remove the sackcloth from your body, and take your sandals off your feet. And he did so, walking naked and barefoot.
3 Then the LORD said, Just as My servant Isaiah has walked naked and barefoot three years for a sign and a wonder against Egypt and Ethiopia, 4 so shall the king of Assyria lead away the Egyptians as prisoners and the Ethiopians as captives, young and old, naked and barefoot, with their buttocks uncovered, to the shame of Egypt."
Would you call God's instructions to a prophet 'inappropriate'? Christian naturists take this verse literally to mean that it's ok to preach the gospel in the raw.
Luke 12: 27-28
27 Consider the lilies, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin; and yet I say to you, even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. 28 If then God so clothes the grass, which today is in the field and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, how much more will He clothe you, O you of little faith?"
Colossians 2:23
"23 These things indeed have an appearance of wisdom in self-imposed religion, false humility, and neglect of the body, but are of no value against the indulgence of the flesh."
Wearing clothes does not prevent one from having lustful thoughts. Instead, it achieves the complete opposite. In naturist cultures that exist in places like Europe, sex related offences like rape, paedophilia, teen pregnancies and unwanted pregnancies are far lower than in cultures where nudity and sexuality are oppressed and repressed.
Colossians 3:12
Character of the New Man
"12 Therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, put on tender mercies, kindness, humility, meekness, longsuffering."
Being naked is not dangerous behaviour. People should have the right to go nude where they want (including church), as long as they are not sexually stimulating themselves in the open, or soliciting strangers for sexual favours. It's only "dangerous" because narrow-minded and immature so-called 'adults' can't handle the sight of God's creation. Jesus taught that if people's eyes cause them offence then they should gouge them out and throw them away.
