Offbeat: If you’re in Tyler, Tx., stop by the Calvary Nudist Baptist Church
- We are lambs before the Lord, and every Sunday we give thanks to Him with all of our body and soul. And it includes the sacrifice of our garments, for it was when Eve ate from the Tree of Life and gathered fig leaves that mankind fell into sin.
- Pastor Mark Johnson (heh heh, you said “Johnson”) • On why his church thinks that nudity is awesome. Johnson says that the nudity angle of his Texas church isn’t an attempt to recreate “hedonistic, recreational lifestyles,” but an attempt to appreciate Jesus in a super-devoted way. Dude. you’re embarrassing yourself. (We’re not kidding. The photo on his site shows the dude bare-chested and everything.) But you’re doing it for Jesus, so we guess it’s OK. • source
