This is traditional Christian doctrine going back to the Church Fathers.
When God created the universe, everything He made was "good," and the last day's work was "very good." Adam's fall subjected the body to sin and death and nature to decay and death, but when Christ was incarnated in a human body it gave the human body renewed dignity.
Certainly there's nothing in the Bible about the body being "property."

Yes, of course we understand that this is both Biblical and historically orthodox doctrine. My point is that very often I read such gross ridicule of Biblical Christian doctrine and thought on Free Republic. It does seem that there are more a-moral Libertarians than Bible-respecting Conservatives that comment on Free Republic
