Basphemy of the Holy Spirit - which is deliberately, willingfully and consistently turning your back on God and ignoring him throughout your whole life.
All else is forgivable - child molestation, mass murder, cursing God, torturing others, etc.
Amazing, I know. But our God is Love and He is amazing.

In God's eyes, it is blasphemy. Although suicide is a sin, it is not an unforgivable sin. There are numerous suicides in the Bible (Judas and Samson for example), and none of them were condemned by God, or at least it was not mentioned in the Bible. Although some say that suicide is the unforgivable sin because the person who took his life was not able to repent, there are plenty of people that died at the hands of others or diseases with 'unrepented sins'.

Okay now...don't freak out here, but the unpardonable sin is called blasphemy of a certain member of the trinity. I won't go into specifics, because there are a lot of freaks out there who would like to parade their filth on the internet.
But let me tell you what the unpardonable sin is NOT.
It's not some nasty cuss word against God that Satan throws in your mind.
Had any crappy thoughts lately? Think they were yours?
Let me ask you...how do you feel about the Lord?
If you are freaking out thinking that you have committed it, you haven't.
See, the unpardonable sin is when God's Spirity draws a person, but they keeep on hardening their heart against Him.
Eventually, you can get so hardened, that you quit hearing His voice.
The Bible says that noone can come unto God unless His spirit draws them.
To blaspheme Him unforgivably is to shut yourself off from His convicting presence.
It's not a one time whack thought, but a continual attitutude of the heart.
Believe me...if your heart is pounding, and you think you've committed it, this shows that you care about where you stand with God, and that you haven't gone too far.

"Therefore I say to you, every sin and blasphemy will be forgiven men, but blasphemy against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven men. Anyone who speaks a word against the Son of Man it will be forgiven him, but whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit, it will not be forgiven him, either in this age or the age to come."
Matthew 12:31-12:32

Scriptures from the Holy Bible ...(seek God's Word for answers to questions like this).
Mark 3:29
But he that shall blaspheme against the Holy Ghost hath never forgiveness, but is in danger of eternal damnation.
Luke 12:10
But unto him that blasphemeth against the Holy Ghost it shall not be forgiven.
Matthew 12:31-32
Wherefore I say unto you, All manner of sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven unto men: but the blasphemy against the Holy Ghost shall not be forgiven unto men. And whosoever speaketh a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him: but whosoever speaketh against the Holy Ghost, it shall not be forgiven him, neither in this world, neither in the world to come.

A priest I once knew said that the only sin that was unforgivable was the sin of believing that there is a sin that was unforgivable.So in essence there is no sin that is unforgivable if you are willing to lie yourself before the Lord..

In Mark 3:29 we find,
29 "but he who blasphemes against the Holy Spirit never has forgiveness, but is subject to eternal condemnation"
This is the reason Jesus said that. He was accused of healing by the ruler of demons, when in fact it was the Holy Spirit by which he was healing. To blaspheme the Holy Spirit is to attribute to the demons the work of the Holy Spirit.
Jesus was responding to what is recorded in verse 22.
22 And the scribes who came down from Jerusalem siad, "He has Beezebub," and "By the ruler of the demons He casts out demons."

Despair and presumption, also called sinning against the Holy Spirit. To be forgiven, we must ask God's forgivness. Despair is believeing God can't forgive you, and presumption is believeing that you don't need Him to forgive you. Both put you in a position not being able to be forgiven...
God Bless.

The only unforgiveable sin is rejecting God and turning away from him.

accepting reality on faith, is most unforgivable. It is the insanity that feeds on it self. Reality is the judge on this and everything else.
Real actions have real consequence.
Accepting faith as the best means to see reality is to ignore reality. Do you use faith when crossing a busy highway? Of course not.
