Priest gets his kit off
Sydney - Christians who flock to next month's three-day nudist festival in the Australian seaside town of Cabarita will not need to miss their regular religious observances, a Baptist minister who is also a follower of naturism said on Friday.
Pastor Robert Wright pledged to lead services in the nude at the Raw Cabarita gathering beginning on April 22.
"I am not trying to get Christians to become nudists, I am catering for Christians who are nudists," Wright told Australia's AAP news agency.
Wright, a naturist for 16 years, also plans to preside over a weekly fellowship meeting at Pacific Sun Friends nudist resort in Donnybrook, Brisbane.
"There are more Christians in it than people realise," Wright said. "We are not into sex orgies, we are very well-adjusted people." - Sapa-dpa
