the entire system needs to be overhauled. weve gone from a society that would turn a blind eye to a ch8ild being not only severely beaten but sometimes even to the point of the loss of their life.. to having the state step in and charge you with "parental incompetance" because they dont like the names youve chosen for yer children?? not only charge you.. but take yer babies and KEEP them in foster care because of it??? http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/10/27/deborah-and-heath-campbel_n_1035040.html?icid=maing-grid10%7Chtmlws-main-bb%7Cdl1%7Csec1_lnk3%7C107915 regardless of yer veiw about white supremacy or yer personal feelings and opinions towards the nazi leader himself.. this is sposed to be a free country! people are sposed to be legally allowed to do say and express themselves in however which way they please.. its a constitutional right of every citizen and protected under the law! so why is it that the state.. even after the parents were vindicated in the courts of the charges.. are STILL refusing to give them back their children?? this is just so very wrong on so many levels! do you agree or disagree, and why??

The government has gotten were they try to control everything. It is wrong for the state to try to tell you what you can name your child.

I don't think they have to take their children away just for their names,and if they have made the psycological studies and the children haven't suffered any abuse, they should give their children back. About the names I think is an abuse for the kids to have such as names, in the future in the school and all places they would go, they will make the people remember that assesine who killed all of those people. Naming Our Children By Pastor and Mrs. Matt Trewhella A name is of great importance, therefore, naming our children is of great importance. The Israelites of old knew this importance. They took the choosing of names for their children very seriously. They wanted the name they chose to have special significance to the child. As Christians, we should have the same desire when naming our children. We should want the names we give our children to give them a sense of purpose in God. Today, unfortunately, many name their children a certain name because it "sounds nice." Most do not know the meaning of their child's name. Even when they do know the meaning of their child’s name, they usually chose it because they thought it was a "cool" meaning. They don't see it as relating to their child for any significant purpose. In America, we often name children almost like one would name a pet. The reason the naming of their children was so important to the Hebrews was because - a name entails all that you are. It declares your character. And, it relates in some way your purpose in God. In Philippians 2:9, the Scriptures declare that God has highly exalted Jesus and "given Him a name which is above every name." Why is the name of Jesus above every name? Because Jesus has revealed all that God is. By the life which He lived and by the words which He spoke, Jesus expressed all that God is. The Scriptures are clear on this. As Hebrews 1:3 declares, Jesus is "the brightness of His (God's) glory, and the express image of His (God's) person." Colossians 1: 15 says, "Jesus is the image of the invisible God." And the Gospel of John 1:18 states, "No man has seen God at any time; the only begotten Son, who is in the bosom of the Father, he has declared Him." Jesus has declared to us all that God is. He revealed God’s character. This is why God has given Him a name which is above every name. Jesus was also given a name which related to His purpose in God The name of Jesus means 'Savior.' In Matthew 1:23, the Scripture declares that He was also given another name which related to His purpose. The Scripture reads, "And they shall call His name Emmanuel, which is translated, 'God with us."' The Naming of Our Children & The Blessing of Our Children I am convinced that the naming of our children is of great importance, therefore, we give our children names filled with meaning. When we name our children, we give them names which will express their character as we envision it from God. We also give them names which relate the purpose that we see God would have for their lives. We want our children to have names which will give them a sense of destiny, as revealed to us by God. (This is especially important for us given the fact that our last name - Trewhella - means 'home beetle.' Not much nobility, purpose, or sense of destiny in that!).
