Not in the same dimension. Sins of Omission could be as bad if let's say...you have the opportunity to do goo but choose to do nothing. this is definitely a failure to act according to God's will because you put your own confort and convenience before doing what should be done for your brother's sake.
A Sin of commision does not have to be necesarily mortal either, what makes the difference is wether youtractions are or have these three element present:
1. Conscious deliberation
2. Awareness of the choice you are making
3. Actual comission of the deed.
If you know that what you are gonna do is wrong, think about oing it, and you do it, despite the fact you know it's wrong, then it's a sin regardless of wether was caused by ommision or commision.
God bless

The first thing that someone should be considering is whether the idea of sin is actually real.
If God is supposed to be perfect how could She have made anything or anyone that wasn't perfect.
Think about it. The idea of sin assumes certain things about God that seem highly unlikely.
First it assumes a God who is too incompetent to organize a simple educational field excursion and figure out a way to get all of the students home safely.
How likely is this that God would not be smart enough to come up with a plan for our salvation that is going to work?
It also assumes that God must have created us imperfect if we are sinners.
One might assume that God would be able to create someone perfect each and every time if he chose to. Assuming God is capable of this, then it follows logically that we must be perfect creations if we are actually creations of this perfect God.
Unless of course you are saying that God chose to create us imperfect.
If God created us imperfect then anything that may go wrong is Gods fault, not ours. This seems a bit illogical at best so I think that we need to assume that What God creates would have to be perfect.
If this is the case and Gods creations are perfect, then nothing that we can do could change what God created perfect and make it imperfect unless we think that we are more powerful than God is.
How likely is it that we the creation could be more powerful than the creator. I personally find this idea somewhat amusing, and a bit absurd.
Religion tells us that God is perfect. If this is true then it could hardly be logically for Gods creations to be considered to be anything less than perfect.
If this is the case and we are perfect creations of a perfect God then Nothing that we can ever do could possibly change this perfection that God willed, unless we were so powerful that our choices could override and change the will of God.
How likely is that????
Think about it.
The idea of sin is simple nonsense; a lie made up about God by religion.

I think that would have to be evaluated on a case by case basis, at times either sin could be worse than the other it is all very subjective though and I do not believe a blanket yes or no could adequately answer this question

All sins are against God and are against His righteousness. Sin is the reason why the Lord Jesus Christ had to come to earth as a man and die for ours sin. If you believe and trust in the fact He died for all your sins, He was buried and took your sins away and He rose again the third day for your justification He did it all for you believe and trust in that and all your sins will be forgiven. 1 Corinthians 15: 3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; 1 Corinthians 15: 4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures: Romans 4: 25 Who was delivered for our offences, and was raised again for our justification.

They're both sins. As to the severity, only God can judge.

A sin is a sin.
It's the same as not being too honest or more honest. Either you are honest or not. It cannot be qualified.
