   I just posted this to alt.love and figured I would share it   
   here as well though I have mentioned it before on these groups.   
      
   Here are some excerpts from my Salmon on the Thorns web page:   
      
   I don't care what anyone believes as long as they are loving,   
   or try to be as much as possible within constraints of life.   
      
   The fundamental is love (love as defined by the one receiving   
   this message, including myself when I read it though I am not   
   receiving it from myself); however this can not be always   
   achieved and so one must at least strive for love. Messages   
   that conflict with that sentence must be discarded or edited   
   to no longer conflict.   
      
   I define LOVE as the someone or something that is not a   
   someone that is highest in goodness measure as defined   
   by my top-ranked deity ALL.   I define LOVE2 as the   
   someone highest in goodness measure as defined by ALL.   
   Thus if LOVE is a someone then LOVE=LOVE2.   You can   
   look at LOVE as ALL's love or ALL's law of love, and   
   LOVE2 as the personification of that love or law of love.   
      
   But obviously ALL is not LOVE.    I also say that no   
   someone can be both all powerful and perfectly loving.
