Remarks to the author (not Salvador) of the quoted piece.
.
Sounds reasonable.Adam and Eve were innocent in their nakedness, but after the fall everything changed. When they sinned, “the eyes of both of them were opened, and they knew that they were naked” (Genesis 3:7). Never before had they realized they were unclothed—the concepts of “clothed” and “unclothed” were meaningless to them.
But the Bible never mentions shame in connection with their nudity.Sin affected their hearts and minds, creating vulnerability, guilt, and shame, and these things produced fear (verse 10). In their attempt to cover their spiritual shame, Adam and Eve intuitively covered their bodies.
Other than one or maybe two of the cited verses, none equate nudity with shame.Nudity now has implications of sinfulness attached to it. With few exceptions, the Bible presents nakedness as shameful and degrading (Genesis 9:21; Exodus 20:26; 32:25; 2 Chronicles 28:19; Isaiah 47:3; Ezekiel 16:35-36; Luke 8:27; Revelation 3:17; 16:15; 17:16).
YupWe still live in a fallen world, surrounded by lust, immorality, and perversion.
Need examples.The innocence of Eden is gone. Naturist philosophy ignores the results of the fall.
BSEven in “asexual” contexts, public displays of nudity dishonor God by pretending an innocence that no longer exists.
And I think they should. Now what?A Christian should definitely not be a nudist or participate in nudist activities."
In summary, froma Christianapologistmy viewpoint,
