As long as I don't sin any other way I'll probably get off with a caution? Just a thought.

Actually the 7 Deadly sins are:
1 Lust
2 Gluttony
3 Greed/Avarice
4 Laziness/Sloth
5 Wrath
6 Envy
7 Pride
Who told you that killing was one of them???
Also... Wedding Singer, there is nowhere in the Bible where a woman is admonished for laying with another woman. It is the spilling of a man's seed into/onto anything, anywhere other than the womb that is the sin. What the Bible refers to as an abomination is the fact that a man with another man is using his seed in a way which God didn't intend. Check out Onan's admonishment in the Old Testement
A man loving, or kissing another man is perfectly acceptable and the Bible gives many references of male love.
Didn't Judas kiss Jesus??? I didn;t hear any mention of Jesus calling him gay. It was acceptable.

All sins can be forgiven if we repent and turn away from evil (except the condemning the Holy Spirit), so if I kill somebody and after some time honestly repent and never do the same thing again, I can be forgiven, but if you do something that you know is wrong (but you find an excuse that it's not deadly wrong) and continue in it, there is a big difference between the two of us.

All sins are not the same , in that some have much more greater consequencies than the other but the bottom line is that they are all called sin and are not acceptable by God. but the best approah to the matter is know that God loves you inspite of any of the sin and sent his son to us when we yet sinners.

***BEING GAY IS NOT A SIN***
The ***SIN IS IN THE GAY ACT***
just like premarital sex and masturbation.
And Killing is not one of the Seven Deadly Sins either. It's one of the Ten Commandments though. But no matter what the sin we can receive forgiveness through repentence.

Being gay is indeed not a sin, but lust (fornication) is. The sin is always in the deed; not the person. Temptation is not a sin.
Regardless, I don't know why so many Christians (and others) focus on other people's sins when they need to be concerned with their own.

I don't believe in the 7 deadly sins, but I believe in the ten commandments and to my reading being as G-d made you isn't prohibited by them.
God bless.

Being gay is NOT a sin, and I am a Christian. However, laying with a man as if he were a woman, ie sex, IS a sin in the eyes of the Lord.
If a man fancies a man, or woman fancies a woman, they cannot help it. However, they choose to have sex, which is a sin.

My Grandma is Irish Catholic and at one confession she was made to recite the entire Rosary as penance for 'Impure Thoughts'...
I reserved my seat downstairs a long time ago - means I can have as much fun as I like (although as a matter of principal I do my best to lead a good life and not cause hurt to other people), if the God Squad are right about Rock being filled with secret Satanic messages, it may be Hell, but at least there'll be a great soundtrack and best of all, as most of my friends see themselves in the same boat as me, I'll be in great company!
Maybe see you down there! :) Be Good!

Being gay does not hurt anyone and is a completely personal thing. Killing however does hurt and not only the killed person but all of their loved ones. So as gay is not a sin (not religious remarks here please) and killing is, keep to the gay side and forget killing.

Why does everybody have such a downer on Gays, each to there own I say, and it certainly isnt a sin. people believe to much from a book that was written 1000's of years ago, times change and so should the bible.
