NO. Christians will not go into place like that because according to bible "1Thessalonians 5:22 Abstain from all appearance of evil. "

Every-thing is permissable but not everything is benificial. IE: If you are truly saved (through Jesus Christ), there is no way that you would purposefully go there and willfully put yourself in a place of temptation. This will not be benificial to your walk with the Lord as you will be lusting. After-all the only reason pople go there is to perve at the opposite sex (lust). What is more important to you, your eternal salvation or a momentary time of pleasure that will displease you creator. Let me remind you that "it is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God."

Absolutely. I know many nudists who are Christians; they don't see any conflict between the two.
There are actually nudists groups that were started by Christian ministers, and there are nudists who worship nude.
Remember, nude social recreation has nothing to do with sex; that's not what they're about at all.

I was raised Catholic and I'm a nudist. The way I see it I was born naked so God wants me to be naked. He did, after all, created me in his image.
There has been a lot of debate about what the Bible's take on nudity is, but like with everything in the Bible, the actual passages are quite vague. That's why different religions have such varied takes on what the Bible is actually saying. I form my beliefs on how I interpret what the Bible says, not on how someone tells me I should. You should read the Bible and then draw your own conclusions.

God created mankind naked, and he called his creation good.
Christianity has roots in social nudity. For example, early baptisms were co-ed and often performed in the nude. The Bible itself recounts that Peter was fishing in the nude and Christ did not reprimand him for it.
So yes, I think it is OK.

No. Whether or not it causes lust in you is only part of the issue. The other issue is that Christians are not to do anything that causes another person to sin. So, the answer is no.

Id don't see why not, if you are not uncomfortable being nude or seeing other nude people. However, it would have to be hard to not be part of lustfulness, either of your own or someone elses.

I look at it this way.....God made you, right? Were you born with clothes on? Are you thoughts pure every second of the day? Please....go with your gut on this one. Don't let others brainwash you into thinking that every move you make or every impure thought you have is wrong. Do what YOU think is right.

No it's not. If you are a true Christian and He dwells within you, you already know that by the witness of His Spirit. If not, ask Him into your heart today. Many people call themselves Christian but God does not dwell there. PEACE!!!

Ask some of the priests and pastors you'll find there.
