"This case is ... about the need for the department to take action under difficult, time-sensitive and unprecedented circumstances," the state agency said in its appeal.

"The existence of the FLDS belief system as described by the department's witnesses, by itself, does not put children of FLDS parents in physical danger," the court said in its ruling, overturning the order to keep the children by state District Judge Barbara Walther

She said Walther has 10 days to comply with the appeals court ruling.

In one hearing, CPS officials acknowledged taking copies of the Book of Mormon from FLDS children. "And CPS is now going through those Books of Mormon, looking for marginal notes and censoring anything that they, quote, ‘disapprove of or find inappropriate.' And I think that that is wrong," Parker said.
CPS spokesman Patrick Crimmins says it may only be one case where authorities removed pictures and teachings of Warren Jeffs from some scriptures, then gave the books back. He says, "We obviously don't have any quarrel with the Book of Mormon, or the Bible, or the Koran." He says the problem is when children are reading the words of a convicted sex offender like Warren Jeffs.

This is seriously the most offensive thing I have ever heard in my life.

Service plan hearings start today

"The next round of hearings for the children will begin Monday in San Angelo with officials using five courtrooms at once.
The hearings, which must be held 60 days after the seizure of a child, will not address custody issues but will focus on service plans -- essentially a contract between CPS and parents that lists priorities, Meisner said. Each child and parent will receive one.
Parents must follow CPS guidelines if they want to eventually retain custody of their children. But Parker said the service plans require the parents "to sign off on CPS' version of events" and essentially renounce their religion."
