From here:
Mr Horrocks, from the Seven Saints Rectory in Farnworth, Bolton, is set to bare all for a TV documentary in a bid to change attitudes towards the naked human body.
The 55-year-old says the Bible celebrates nudity and the sexualisation of bodies is a modern phenomenon which has been manufactured by advertising.
[….]
“I went away and researched the Bible and I found there was a lot of positive stuff – there is nothing condemning simple nakedness. It was part of life at the time of Jesus. It’s something I would’ve loved to have discovered when I was a lot younger.’
At a time when it is tearing itself apart over same-sex marriage, homosexual clergy and women bishops, this is just what the Church of England needs to lend a little sober perspective to its travails: nude vicars.
There is some good news in all this: Rev, Horrocks, you don’t need to worry about anyone sexualising your body; really.
