Birth nudity: Why this is an American Christian tradition

Many parents think that their children should wear clothing. This is a common attitude amongst American parents. Most American parents force their children to wear clothing. However, there is something to be said for birth nudity. Birth nudity is a traditional practice that predates this country itself, and dates back to biblical times.

Birth nudity eases the application of the Christian doctrine of mutual submission. See Colossians 3:20-21 KJV:

Children, obey your parents in all things: for this is well pleasing into the Lord. Fathers, provoke not your children to anger, lest they be discouraged. 

The Greek root word translated "obey" is υπακουο (Latin: hupakouo) and refers to secure, vulnerable rest in the love and submission of parents. Children are to rest securely in the sacrifice of parents, just as parent believers rest securely in the Sacrifice of Jesus Christ. This implies that parents are to be extensions of Christ in the family home, dutifully and selflessly submitting to children just as they would to God, expecting absolutely nothing in return, with children resting safely and securely in the wake of parent submission. Parents are to submit to children as their enemy, from beneath yet from above, revering and fearing children as vulnerable extensions of God.

The Greek root word translated "provoke...to anger" is ερεθιζο (Latin: erethizo) and refers to damages or offenses, namely the slightest of personal offense perceived by a child, including, but not limited to, the slightest of offensive touch or speech perceived by a child, stemming from entitlement. This commandment was intended by the Apostle Paul, and understood in its original context, as a moral statute prohibiting all forms of punitive parenting, including any punishments or controlling demeanor towards children. In the Old Testament, punitive parents were put to death by way of bloodletting, after punishing their children one last time. Parents who punished their children were charged with kidnapping, with "kidnapping" being defined under the Law as the slightest of damages or offenses stemming from hostage-taking - child punishment was seen in biblical times as holding your child hostage merely for things that they did wrong, thereby treating your child as a quartered slave. Paul here was lifting up the Law in order to convict a group of Greek Christian parents who brought their pagan custom of spanking and punishing children into the church. Paul, contrary to popular legend, was anti-spanking, and opposed any and all punishment of a child in his writings. 

Birth nudity is a practice dating back to biblical times. In the Early Church, birth nudity was practiced by way of mothers and children being naked next to each other, in skin-on-skin closeness and intimacy. For the first 6 years of a child's life, children went wherever the mother went, with mothers holding children pretty much constantly until age 3. Birth nudity gave mothers the opportunity to give children skin-on-skin comfort and sustenance easier. 

Birth nudity is practiced today by not giving children their clothing until they ask for it, and until then, allow them to be naked in the home. This makes it easier for parents to treat their children to skin-on-skin warmth and sustenance, including, but not limited to, in the realm of co-sleeping. It also improves the parent-child bond, as it brings the parent-child relationship down to an equal level, especially when skin-on-skin comfort is applied. Birth nudity ends when a child requests their clothing, in which case they are given their clothing. 

Skin-on-skin comfort and sustenance strengthens the parent-child bond. The traction between the skin of the mother and the skin of the child calms both parties, and allows both parties to bond. Birth nudity is the ideal context of skin-on-skin comfort and sustenance. It was done in many ancient cultures, including Ancient Israel and the Early Church. The moment you try bonding with your child this way, you'll wonder why you waited so long to try skin-on-skin contact. 

Fathers may find that they grow attracted to their children as they are running around the house naked. In this case, it is recommended that fathers use righteous masturbation in order to center their sexual drive for their child, which makes them more nurturing in terms of nature and demeanor. Remember, mothers nurture up close, whereas fathers nurture from afar. The Greek root word denoting lust in the New Testament is επιθυμέω (Latin: epithumeo) and refers not to ordinary sexual desire, but to sexual entitlement. Sexual entitlement is defined as, officially speaking, sexual want, to the point of sexually motivated approach, when the sexual target is not one's spouse. Masturbating righteously is not sin.

America is a Christian nation, founded on Christian family values. The Bible and its context is something we as a nation glean from. In that context, birth nudity was the main staple of parenting, especially during co-sleeping. The Bible is a founding document of this country, even more so than he Constitution itself, and since the Bible condones birth nudity when understood in context, birth nudity is an American tradition.

The depraved and entitled parents who provoke children to anger through punitive parenting will not inherit the Kingdom of God! Let them forever be cast into the lake of fire and burning sulfur, which is the second death prepared for Satan and his accomplices! Let them descend into the abyss which is the ever-burning Hell of fire and torment, suffering God's Wrath forever and ever! Repent, for the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand!
