Nothing like sin, it's a human invention. However, evil exists, like believing your religion is the only true religion and all others are false. That's evil!

God said no sin is greater than the other i believe He tells us that because some of us think on a childs level and for the children to understand the concept of sin. being gay is a sin because we are not born that way we choose to be that way just like we choose to steal a cookie or kill at person or a bug at that what did the bug do but get in the way :) God hates all sin BUT He doesnt hate the sinner that is why we always get a second chance at eternal life. romans 3:23 romans 6:23 john 3:16 they will show you some of the reasons hope you find what you are looking for.happy thanksgiving

Sin is sin in God's eyes there are no big sins and little sins. All sin no matter what it is, is still evil in God's eyesight. He is against all sin not some sins. Killing is the same as lying, robbing is the same as using fowl language. It is all in one category. We must live without sin but first we must get saved the bible way. God can and will keep us fron sinning against him if we don't want too.

Cause it is. All sins are equal. One is just worse than the other to US because of Society. We frown on theft, but we despise murder. WAY back in the day, you could lose a limb for theft.
People forget God and Society are not the same. To God, all sins deserve the same punishment.

HELLO BATTERIES NOT INCLUDED.I will try and answer your question as honestly as i can ok?The Bible does say that sin is sin,I underatnd that,but I believe in my heart that there are different depths of sin,now im sure everyone will not agree,but let me explain please.something as simple as stealing a cookie,might be wrong,thats true but it will not destroy your soul unless you allow that small cookie you took to lead to a really Big cookie...sometimes people let a small thing lead them into bigger things that can destroy your soul and eat at your soul like a cancer.Some people think that since they done one thing wrong that since they sinned they might as well go ahead and be a real big sinner and go steal a car,and kill the person in the car in order to take control of the car.they let sin control their life,so thats why i feel that sin is sin because it can lead you to bigger sins,its like a small sin is the hallway to bigger and bigger sin.a person can get into sin so deep that they start to destroy others and themselfs.When you took that cookie,and you hid it and you knew it was not right you have the opition to STOP,ask forgiveness and go on without letting that sin go on and on until at last you are taking others along with you.........Just like the car,you stole big time ,and killed someone all because you stole a cookie,see what I mean?If you allow yourself to steal once it gets easier and easier until you end up in big trouble.Small things left unchecked leads to bigger and bigger things,and I really believe in my heart that is the reason,sin id sin.I do hpe that i have answered your question.

How do you steal a cooking?
I don't know anyone who believes that all sin is the same. What planet do you live on.

if a mass murdering psychopath can be forgiven his sins then forgiveness for stealing a cookie is also possible. if all sins are equal then there isn't anything you can do that won't be forgiven, providing, of course, you're a Christian..

People don't. Only Christians.
Ever wondered - why do many of the people who murder say that they heard voices in their head and were answering Gods instructions?
Non Christians recognise right and wrong and simply do not believe in sin. Therefore all sinners are Christian.

Catholics believe in venial or Mortal sin. One is not as bad as the other. Mortal sin leads to death.

all sins are not the same. The one's that the Bible calls abominations (Homosexuality for example) are wort than the rest.
