I think you've misread what I've been saying.Where else in the entire Bible does it say that nakedness is a sin? And if the act of being naked where others can see is the sin, then it was NOAH's sin...not his son's sin at all and he had no right to be angry (so another sin).
I believe the act of being a perverse person is a sin, and being naked for some perverted reason is sinful. However, it is simply shameful to be nude in public, or for others to see generally speaking.
It seems implied that Ham's sin was making fun of his fathers state of shame, and it seems that Ham wanting to expose his father to his two brothers was his sin. It was not the fact that he saw his father, but rather that he told his two brothers with the intent of making fun of his father.
One could likely imagine Ham saying to his two brothers "Hey guys, look at father, he's naked and drunk, hilarious."
Gen 9:22 Ham, the father of Canaan, saw the nakedness of his father, and told his two brothers outside.
So, it seems that the manner in which he told his brothers, was not good.
Does anyone recall this:
it's the same spirit of embarrassment. What Ham did to Noah, it wasn't rape for crying out loud. It was making a spectacle of him being naked and drunk.
