Gunnaheave: how about posting an x-rated picture of yourself?
Just for the hell of it...

or we could all just turn around and do a 'Red Hot Chili Peppers' group shot with the 'tube sock' things...

Ahh, the Problem of Clothes. Many great theologians have wrestled with it. I believe that, without clothing, we would not be able to understand or appreciate nudity. Likewise, Clothes follow from Free Will; women must be *able* to choose whether or not to be nude.

Hmm. But at the same time, would it really hurt to drag up the nude percentage a bit? :\

(edit to clarify)

How about a biological imperative to not wear clothes? Increased sweating, perhaps? It would make wearing them less comfortable, plus the added effect of glistening... um... *throws water on self*

As Wildernesse put it yesterday..

Atheists are nothing but evil kitten/baby eaters...

and TRUE CHRISTIANS can't be exposed to such...

2: Can we put a link to infidels.org in our sigs? Apparently Gunny didn't have enough seniority to make that decision on his own. Told me I should go ask a senior mod... sheesh. Shouldn't a mod, when asked a question, find out the answer??
seniority isn't the problem...

it's just Gunny

The parable of the Good Samaritan?

does seem fitting.

An X-rated photo of me?

I do believe that would go a long way towards proving the existence of Satan.

Seebs, you can't explain away clothes without reconciling it with the existance of the Great Clothier. If God is the author of everything, then he is the creator of clothes. I don't care what happened in the Garden of Eden, is it right for God to punish us with clothes?

Don't you see? He *allows* us to punish *ourselves* with clothes. We can stop any time we want.

(editorial note: This works even better than recasting the Problem of Evil as the Problem of Lugnuts: Could an omnipotent being who knew jack shit about cars allow cars to go around with loose lugnuts?)
