    Can Catholics get naked?

    "As evidenced by Adam and Eve, we believe that when God's children are in the right relationship to Him, they will be naked and unashamed," explains one of Natura's brochures.


    US christians have long been intrigued by the biblical implications of nudity and Ilsley Boone, a Baptist pastor, was the founder in 1931 of the American Sunbathing Association, an early naturist group.

    I am afraid the Catholic Saints were rather against public nudity. Seems they felt that in our fallen state, it may be presumptuous to jump the fence back into Eden.

    Although good St. Francis did take off all his clothes when he left his father, and the Bishop had to cover him up. So I don't know. Perhaps Francis kept his underwear on.
