  1. This is an understandable view. That being said; (Trust or no trust) How would you feel if your son, daughter or spouse wanted to pose nude for an art project? How would they feel if you wanted to? I read some of the book of Moses, similar to Genesis. The wording I quoted earlier is almost word for word. The church has petitioned for modest clothing and dress that is not revealing or even too tight or form fitting. I don't think nudity is nececarily evil, but I do think it should be kept for medical necesity and more importantly for a connection between man and wife. If figure drawing is okay, then how about photography for the purpose of art? Art is intended to incite feelings and emotions. You can justify a little at a time until you get what you want, but the bottom line is if there is a question about it, you should probably NOT be involved.
  2. To Wingnut. I dont read that lucifer told them they ought to be ashamed of it. I read "And the eyes of them both were opened, and they knew they were naked; and they sewed fig leaves together, and made themselves aprons." and later in the same chapter God mentions that they have become like gods in knowing good and evil. Then... "Unto Adam also and to his wife did the Lord God make coats of skins and clothe them." This is just my opinion, but why would God give them coats of skins to cover themselves if he were going to say go ahead and make nude art. They were the only two on earth at this point. I believe it was an introduction to modesty and respect each other and God's creation.
  3. First off, I like the discution on this forum. It seems open and overall an insightful environment. Different cultures have different beleifs on the subject of nudity. In some cultures, people are almost completely nude all the time. They also haven't read the Bible. There is nothing sexual about it for them. There is probably not much meaningful about it for them either. One of the first things Adam and Eve did when they tasted the fruit was to cover themseves of their nakedness. Being one of the first thigs in the Bible, this seems to be an important thing. My personal belief is that I want to keep certain things meaningful and special. Everyone has their opinion and choice. Mine is to limit my own exposure to nudity in any form and save it for marriage. In my opinion nudity for medical necesity is tolerable. For me it just adds something nice to the relationship.
