[LM_NET] GEN: Appropriate to remember

[GeorgeAnne Draper <GDraper@WYNNE.K12.AR.US>]

Book selection is a delicate issue.  It is very difficult to separate personal 
feelings and prejudices from the pure selection process.  I know how I feel about 
the LEFT BEHIND SERIES.  My personal feeling is that the title fits what should be 
done to them. Do I let that color my selection?  Sure I do.  
When I have doubts about speaking my mind, I always think of the words below.

First They Came for the Jews

First they came for the Jews
and I did not speak out
because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for the Communists
and I did not speak out
because I was not a Communist.
Then they came for the trade unionists
and I did not speak out
because I was not a trade unionist.
Then they came for me
and there was no one left
to speak out for me.
