As a Christian nudist I reject the Gnostic idea that the body is inherently evil or corrupt, such that it ought to always be shielded from public view. I find no such prohibition in scripture. This implies that there must be such a thing as appropriate nudity - times and places where it ought to be permissible to be in our created state among our fellow human beings. Indeed, historical records show that the early church didn’t exhibit the same aversion to simple nudity that modern culture does.
