That Adam and Eve disobeyed Him? Or that they attempted to pass the blame and not accept their own actions?

Biblically, all sins are equal.
Personally, passing the buck seems worse.

In my opinion GOD was sad not offended. In HIS sadness GOD had to punish Adam and Eve, and everything else that goes with that. Sad because they all must have been close as being in Eden can be, and those days are over.
But well I guess it is called a sin, so:
Disobeying GOD. If they had kept faith and been stronger then the temptation would not have worked.
They passed the blame AFTER they ate of the fruit so were aware of right and wrong, and other concepts, and hoped GOD would spare them, after they explained who thought of eating the fruit, first.

They did accept their actions. Read all of the story. I don't think the greatest sin was their disobidience. Eve had to eat the fruit to understand everything she needed to understand, and Adam had to eat it so he wouldn't be alone in the garden. He knew that to obey God's commandment of multiply and replenish that he would need Eve. It might have been original sin, but they were forgiven of the sin. Because of the attonement of Christ, their sin was forgiven. But that doesn't matter. We are held accountable for what we do, not for what Adam and Eve did.
To me, the greatest sin is denying the Holy Spirit, or Christ. That is what God calls an unforgiveable sin. Almost anything else is forgiveable.

I think the second action was the result of the first. The moment Eve transgressed, her moral sensibilities were darkened (like the sensiblilities of some of the other people answering this question). It is interesting to me though, that when Eve sinned, she was genuinely hoodwinked - deceived by Satan. When Adam sinned, he went into it with his eyes wide open. He deliberately chose to do what he clearly understood was calculated rebellion against God. (refer to I Timothy 2:14) So Adam's sin was the greater.

According to the Bible, the only unforgivable sin is not believing that God will not forgive us, even if the sins in question are as grave as Adam and Eve's original sins.
As humans, we all make mistakes from time to time and God knows this, but it is worse to avoid taking responsibility for our sins, because then we are separating ourselves from God, which can only bring us suffering and death.

Passover and each and all the biblical feasts and customs have been in simple terms 'judiazed" pagan observances and practices and there is each reason in the back of Christianity to proceed this via 'baptizing' pre Christian observances i've got self assurance Jesus be conscious and coaching that the bread and the wine truthfully are replaced in substance into Jesus yet no longer in its chemistry or different features of the 'species, injuries and outer sign' of the Sacrament of the Eucharist' except a believer relatively believes Jesus be conscious with reference to the Eucharist(genuine presence), is baptized , "examines himself' and repents of all sin(somewhat severe sin) and motives no scandal, then he shouldn't partake(See a million Cor10-11) of the Eucharist

It was that they attempted to pass the blame..... this one I am sure is the greater sin, since God was happy with me, that I basically took the blame, and not blamed others, God was Happy with me that I was truthful, that was the day God intervene to me on the job site in that moment of truth, and said, " I am happy with you".

passing blame is disrespect to the self, the id etc. It is the denial to face consequence and to know it as fully intimately as a full circle event that is the denial of God. If God did not give man free will to act then we would be like the rest of the animal kingdom. To strike without consequence is to lower oneself to the level of the rest of the animal kingdom. To measure risk, to act out against instinct for desired consequence is almost devine. rules are meant to be broken. this is my understanding of the Adam and Eve parable. the existence of man is inherently partially lucifer. we are of free will for a reason defined by nature and god itself. this is my opinion.

I really think passing the blame was greater, however the sin was done and the fall happened when they did not obey God. It was a stinging insult to think that they could weasel out of it, though.
Man, you got my brain to itching now, lol.
