LET GIVING HURT

When a government public institution is named after  a living person, regardless of whether he/she has questionable backgrounds should not be allowed at all. Only the public has the authority to label an institution and not a group of officials in an institution. At most, the officials may conduct a survey of opinions and possibly hold a plebiscite on what name should be given an institution. Otherwise, any individual with funds could donate and expect his or her name to be put up, or even his or her picture appear in perpetuity at the office, which could be a form of punishment to those who would not appreciate seeing that picture at all. I think that charity or gift-giving should be as unobtrusive as possible; the least the giver is known the better. That is a real Christian act of giving, not expecting anything in return.Neither should anyone expect positive karma to come about after giving.
