A casual relationship isn ' t a relationship . The wording is just smoke and mirrors people use to talk down their emotional misgivings . A serious relationship a relationship isn ' t simply based on frequency of visit or activities , it ' s based on strange and totallylastcentury concepts such as commitment , emotional investment and so on and so forth . <| sep |> We ' re the most important state . We deserve more of a say in the presidency . <| sep |> It sounds like you ' re saying the God of the Old Testament and Jesus from the New Testament are two different beings . Which is confusing because I thought they were the same . Besides , the New Testament doesn ' t mention slavery as something negative and Jesus never said owning other people was wrong . It even tells slaves to obey their masters , not try to escape or fight for their freedom . I ' m not an antitheist . There are lots of verses in the New Testament that are downright evil , in my opinion . I just picked this particular topic as an example because it ' s pretty clear cut .
