I agree. Sin is far more than sex alone. By indifferent to the neighbour next door, we have also sin, as Jesus commanded us to love our neighbour as ourselves.
By allowing all the injustice to take place, yet continue to sing praises in the worship hall, we are already doing things that are not pleasing God.
I agree.

I am a born again Christian, married 25 years and have five children.
Sex is not a sin. Not sure why you believe that a born again Christian believes sex to be a sin.
Now what you are really asking might be, Can sex be a sin?
That answer would be yes. God created sex, so sex is a good thing. All good things can also be used for evil(sin)
Sex outside of marriage between a woman and a man would be counted among sin. It is interesting to note that even in the bible sex was mentioned before marriage. The answer to what the man should do if he seduced the young woman into sex before marriage, its that he should marry her.
My biggest suggestion would be to tell you to read the bible on your own. After you have read it a few times, maybe more. Then when you hear something about Christians and religion, you would be armed with the truth, to dispute what they said, or to understand that what they said was right or wrong, according to their own beliefs.
Christians do not believe they are better than anyone else. I am the same sinner that you are. Greed is part of our sin nature, you will find that characteristic in all humans in some form.
Oh and by the way, what sin of sex is not mentioned in the bible?
My bet is that it is mentioned, let me know and I will look up where to read for you.
Knowledge is power.

We do not think of sex as a sin. You are deceived if you think so. Sex is something that has been a part of mankind since Adam and Eve was created.
What we have a problem with is the your idea of sex.
Sex outside the context of only a married couple, adultery, and fornication, Bestiality, homosexuality, etc. is sinful.

born again people believe that sex is Gods wedding present to the human race - hence it is the unwrapping of it before the wedding that is considered sinful - misuse of sex often brings guilt and tears even if born again people didn't consider it sinful.
the 'sin' label is a way of trying to warn people off doing things that are harmful to themselves and others or doing things in a way that is harmful to themselves or others

Because they're frustrated since they can't have it... so they have to talk about it.
