BIZZARE: This Church Allows Members Attend Service unclad Because ‘Jesus Was Crucified Without Clothes’ (PHOTOS)

A church in the US state of Virginia, White Tail Chapel, has taken the bizarre decision to allow its congregation attend church services unclad.

Because according to their leader, Pastor Allen Parker, the clothing requirements of other churches were overly ‘pretentious’. So he decided his own flock should be free to forgo such materialism if they desire.

Pastor Allen claims that many of the most important moments in the Bible happened while the protagonists were unclad, including Jesus’ crucifixion and resurrection. Speaking to CNN, Mr Parker said:

‘When he [Jesus] was born he was unclad, when he was crucified he was unclad and when he arose he left his clothes in the tomb and he was unclad. If God made us that way, how can that be wrong?’

Mr Parker is believed to have drawn at least some of his opinions on indecency from the book of Genesis, in which Adam and Eve were originally described as ‘both unclad, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed’. It was only after sinfully eating forbidden fruit from the Tree of Knowledge that Adam and Even are said to have seen their indecency as shameful, at which point they sowed fig leaves into loincloths.

Although the church allows worshipers to attend services fully unclad, many members decided they would rather continue to attend fully clothed, particularly when in mid-winter, while others opt to just reveal their br**sts or private parts.
