   The problem with most so-called fundamentalists is that   
   they follow minor messages that conflict with their   
   main messages.   
      
   One of my messages on my Salmon on the Thorns web page is:   
      
   "The fundamental is to love; however this can not be always   
   achieved and so one must at least strive to love. Messages   
   that conflict with that sentence must be discarded or edited   
   to no longer conflict."   
      
      
   Two other related messages on that web page are:   
      
   "Don't care what anyone believes as long as they are loving,   
   or try to be as much as possible within constraints of life."   
      
   and   
      
   "Loving behaviour should be both within our species (including   
   to other nationalities, races, spiritual paths, orientations,   
   genders, ages, transgendered status, mental health diagnoses,   
   physical illness diagnoses, and physical disability   
   classificatons, and with no instigation of war) and, though   
   we would give our own species a `human family' edge, to   
   members of other species and to each species as a unit and   
   to the environment we are part of."
