   Bans On Nudity Are Suppression Of Our Sexuality Only -  Not Suppression Of   
   Nudity   
      
   ...Cause it's only the genitals, you can't expose...   
      
   "unlike Moses, who put a veil over his face so that the children of Israel   
   could   
   not look steadily at the end of what was passing away.  But their minds were   
   blinded. For until this day the same veil remains unlifted in the reading of   
   the   
   Old Testament, because the veil is taken away in Christ.  But even to this day,   
   when Moses is read, a veil lies on their heart.  Nevertheless when one turns to   
   the Lord, the veil is taken away.  Now the Lord is the Spirit; and where the   
   Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.  But we all, with unveiled face,   
   beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the   
   same image from glory to glory, just as by the Spirit of the Lord."   
   - Paul the Apostle, 2 Corinthians 3:13-18, Holy Bible, New Testament, NKJV   
      
      
   Our arms, legs, and faces (unlike Moses), are nude if we want them to be, all   
   day.   
      
      
   Sexuality is of course, a human right.   
      
   Suppression of sexuality, is of course oppression, and is, of course, wrong.   
      
   You have to think though - is exposing the genitals really liable to be sexual   
   any   
   more than exposing the legs, or wearing a seductive bikini is? (For even a   
   woman   
   in jeans, with a pretty face, is sexually attractive to males).   
      
   Are we not really just brainwashed into the customs of a changing culture, like   
   those in the 1950's who mandated swimsuits be no more than the specified   
   number of   
   inches above the knee?   
      
   Are we not really just oppressed and thereby repressed children of a lesser   
   god?   
   And that god is the satanic perversion of the United States, that threatens us   
   if   
   we don't obey it's unholy dictates?   
      
   It would be one thing to be children of the United States, if it were "One   
   Nation   
   Under God," as it asserts to be.  But as it is apparent that it is not, we must   
   remember ourselves to be the children of freedom and of god who we are.  Our   
   trust   
   must be put there, and not in the unjust steward that has ruined us.   
      
   For to prohibit us from rightful things is to ruin us, for it is to impoverish   
   us.   
      
   Prohibition is not the way to deal with negative social externalities such as   
   the   
   buffoonery of drug abuse, the immorality of unplanned child birth, the use of   
   guns   
   in villainy, or the thievery of a few of those so poor they must live in   
   vehicles.   
      
   There are solutions to address these problems, and a simple pull of the   
   trigger,   
   and use of murder does not solve the problem.   
      
   "Hypocrites! Well did Isaiah prophesy about you, saying:   
   ‘These people draw near to Me with their mouth,   
   And honor Me with their lips,   
   But their heart is far from Me.   
   And in vain they worship Me,   
   Teaching as doctrines the commandments of men.’ ”   
   - Jesus Christ, Matt 15:7-9, Holy Bible, New Testament, NKJV   
      
   The doctrines of God lead to salvation.  The commandments of men, lead but to   
   destruction.  It's either war or love, and let us when possible, make the   
   obvious   
   choice for meaning and rightfulness: love.   
      
   And I, as an ambassador for Christ, am pleading with you, be reconciled to   
   God. Do   
   not worship death and hell as your masters.  And do not be deceived.  Sinners   
   will   
   by no means enter the kingdom of heaven.  If hell is your master, you know   
   where   
   you're going.  If death is your master you know where you're going.  Such   
   sadism   
   has no place in God's world.  And all you stand to be redeemed and enriched.   
      
   For you, brethren, have been called to liberty; through love serve one another.
