crusader1234 Posted June 19, 2004 Posted June 19, 2004 There was already a thread on this where (and I bet you can guess which people were saying this) some people were arguing that nudity was always a sin and even on the Cistine Chapel ceiling. My personal viewpoint on the matter is that if you look at something, you acn just tell. I'll go dig up the old thread. Peace, Rich

Quietfire Posted June 19, 2004 Posted June 19, 2004 (edited) Ya know, I've been thinking. (does anyone smell smoke?) Nudity. Now, wouldnt it also depend on how one was raised. If a parent were to raise a child to see the body not as a lustfull thing but as a thing of beauty, would that make a difference? I mean to show respect for one's body? And others? Example... When I was younger, my parents were VERY careful about what we saw on television. As a result, I guess I was rather sheltered on alot of stuff. But I have a specific memory of a certain event. My mom was explaining to us that sex wasnt a "toy to be played with". Things like diseases and such were always out there. I could go on here, but it isnt the exact words of the conversation I remember as much as what she did next. She then produced a Playboy magazine. Now wait a minute and hear me out. Well, we know what Playboy is for, dont we? We knew it too. BUT, she went to a specific page and the pictures there were very graphic and very different. They showed sexual diseases at different stages on the human body. Yes, it was still the Playboy magazine, but this was creepy. These pictures showed sexual organs and how VD ravaged the body. Doesnt that fit in here somehow? I know my mom was trying to be more educational than anything. But since some argue that nudity is nudity and it's all evil (including the Sistine Chapel ?????), that kindof stuck with me. Peace. Hey, what about doctors? They see us in the buff.
