I have a hard time believing any red-blooded American male would say there is no sexual connotation. That is him being a normal American male. If a naked woman { decent looking of course } stands in front of me there is only one 'normal' thing my brain is thinking about!!!! That would be natural, or at least in my culture. Of course what is natural isn't always right, but still!!!
It seems to be a shame that all you can comment on is the sexual aspect of being nude. And the comment about "decent looking of course" is an out and out insult to every person, not just woman. It shows your predigest very clearly.

I call total bs on the subject. Them folks aren't right in the head or something.
I wonder how many people would say that about you and your beliefs. Regardless of whether we agree with their views or not, we should at least respect their right to have them.

You can bet no one will be packing Viagra along for the week-end at the nudist colony!!!
Another sexual innuendo. It is clear to me where your mind is. And what does the bible say about that? Where a man's mind is, there is his heart also?

The ignorance of some people.
Ignorance is a two way street. Have you taken the time to see why they believe what they believe? Have you taken the time to research this? This comment was in answer to "The Bible very clearly states that when Adam and Eve were in right with God, they were naked," said David Blood, executive director of the project.
I did a quick check on this using a few sources for information. Interestingly enough Mr. Blood was right. But then Adam and Eve were kicked out of the garden
after God made them coverings. But why? To cover their shame? According to one Christian Naturist pastor it was because they were being removed from a tropical climate and thrown into a harsh climate. The coverings were made to protect them.
He said, "Considering they had sinned, it's not surprising that God tossed them out of Eden. What most people don't realize is that God never said they must wear clothing to cover their bodies. Look, if you will, at the passage that talks about that. God gives punishments for their sin. But wearing clothing is not among them."

If they were so right, why did they run and hide from God in shame of their nakedness????
As for the "hide from God in shame of their nakedness" what makes you so sure they are hiding? Does not David say, "Where can I go that you will not be there, O God?"
I will be fair on this topic and take the time needed to properly research the views and beliefs of the Christians that are also Naturists. When I am done I will present what I have learned. But there is one thing that is certain
.be they right, be they wrong, it is to God who will hold them accountable. Here's a thought
what if they ARE right? We will be held accountable for NOT being naturists, won't we?
