To distinguish what is right and wrong(=sin) is an innate faculty of every human mind same as the sense of appreciation of beauty and other mental faculties.
(It is the modern day temporary myth that there is no such thing as sin.)
So instead of listing permitted and forbidden things, use this innate moral sense to judge things. You can do this only if you are really sincere, not-self-deceiver (and not brainwashed by myths).

Contemplating all the various sins that are possible,
as desire *equals* action in God's eyes...
For example, Christ Jesus said:
“YOU heard ..., ‘You must not commit adultery.’
But I say to YOU that
Everyone that keeps on looking at a woman so as to have a passion for her has already committed adultery with her in his heart.
If, now, that right eye of yours is making you stumble, tear it out and throw it away from you...
Also, if your right hand is making you stumble, cut it off and throw it away from you.
For it is more beneficial to you for one of your members to be lost to you than for your whole body to be pitched into Ge·hen′na."
--Matthew 5:27-30*
It is of interest what even the great Hindu sage Mohandas K. Gandhi once told the British viceroy of India:
"When your country and mine shall get together on the teachings laid down by Christ in his Sermon on the Mount,
--[*Matthew chapters 5 to 7* in the Bible]--
we shall have solved the problems, not only of our countries but those of the whole world."

Sin is:
noun, verb, sinned, sin·ning.
–noun
1.transgression of divine law: the sin of Adam.
2.any act regarded as such a transgression, esp. a willful or deliberate violation of some religious or moral principle.
3.any reprehensible or regrettable action, behavior, lapse, etc.; great fault or offense: It's a sin to waste time.
–verb (used without object)
4.to commit a sinful act.
5.to offend against a principle, standard, etc.
–verb (used with object)
6.to commit or perform sinfully: He sinned his crimes without compunction.
7.to bring, drive, etc., by sinning: He sinned his soul to perdition.
[Origin: bef. 900; (n.) ME; OE syn(n) offense, misdeed; akin to G Sünde, ON synd sin, L sÅns guilty; (v.) deriv. of the n., r. ME sin(i)gen, syn(i)gen, OE syngian, itself deriv. of the n.]
—Related forms
sinlike, adjective
sin·ning·ly, adverb
sin·ning·ness, noun
—Synonyms 1. trespass, violation. 2. wrong, wickedness. 4. transgress, trespass.
It is also the 22 letter of the hebrew alphabet, the 12 letter of the arabic alphabet, The Akkadian God of the moon, or the opposite side of a triangle devided by the hypotenuse.
It would appear that the general trend is that SIN is the act of disobeying one's God's orders. I do not believe in God, therefore, I cannot sin. I can commit crimes, I can act amorally, but I cannot sin. What I do can be percieved as a sin, If I were to chose to act illegally or amorally, but in my eyes, from my perspective, I am incapeable of such an act.
If I were a member of a religion, I would think that the worst sin would be to, while believing in a god/ a set of gods, and the rules and customs that come with them, to reject them, and chose another god/ another set of gods and rules and customs.

any act done against the will of God can be aptly defined as sin.
there is nothing like worst sin. Sin is sin, something really dreadful in the eyes of god, which takes us away from him, and closer to (you know who?),
Sin is sin
nothign big or small
say what we call small sins also leads to what we call big sins
Never do anything agaisnt the will of God.

Are you looking for ideas? lol
According to Christianity the worst sin is denying the Holy Spirit...that is the only "unforgivable" one.
I suppose I could do that for an hour, but why bother. Once you say it once, you're doomed, may as well spend the rest of the hour watching Seinfeld reruns.

Sin is to miss the point - in religious sense, sin is to miss the target that God wants us to realize in our lives here and in the next.
Come to think of God's mercy, i think the worst sin would be suicide - no chance to repent once its done...

There is no sin in the world... what we perceive as sin is either misappropriation, disease or prejudice !!!
If you insist... the only sin is stopping anyone's spiritual progress even for a moment is the biggest sin

If creator does benefit to you and inturn u praise a different man made idol. Neither he can protect himself if he is attacked or protect others life. This is a great sin which many humans are doing today.

Lack of love is sin. You need less than a minute to be a sinner.
