Any Naturists Here?

I'm not really a naturist because I don't go nude since for many years. It's been a really long time ago. I was at a nude hot springs in California. There were hundred of nude people everywhere from kids to elderly people...even I saw gay couple making out in public.. It was called Harbin Hot Springs....I'm sure some of you might have heard of that place.
 
I haven't read all replies because I need to logoff. But I never knew about naturists.

Pete: Wikipedia says naturism is "lifestyle in harmony with nature, expressed through social nudity, and characterised by self-respect of people with different opinions and of the environment. [1] [2] Naturism can also refer to a cultural and political movement practising, advocating and defending social nudity in private and public spaces." I don't understand - how is nudity in public "harmony with nature"? I don't mean to be rude or negative - I don't know anything about naturism. Pete, aren't you Christian? Don't Christian dissaprove of nudity in public? Or no?

Yes, If you go strictly by the Bible, it discourages public nudity.
However there are very pleasant descriptions of the husband
wife relationship, I think in the Songs of Solomen, but I will
have to check the verse.

But, just as the Deaf culture is different than the Hearing
culture, ethnic cultures have different physical restrictions
and taboos, and even Christian denominations have developed
different cultural taboos.

For instance in Africa when you go there as a missionary,
you must be willing to accept that these people believe
top frontal nudity is totally the norm. Mothers nurse
babies topless in church, which was a real shock to
many missionaries.

The only thing thats not negotiable is the 10 commandments
as far as being a Christian goes. (Again that is my belief)

There was a really funny cartoon that had these two martians
standing together and they were holding people farms, (same
as ant farms). Each farm was labled with one church denomination.
Like, Baptists, Methodists, Lutherens, etc. The one martian says
to the other, "When you set up your earth farms, its really important
not to mix the different denominations or they will fight. But the
really strange thing is, if you don't mix them, they will subdivide
and fight anyway! :giggle:
