"Thinking or saying racist or anti-semitic things is a sin

Just curious, did God say this? Who decided that rants are a "sin"?

People rant on me all the time. Call me all sorts of things. Call my mother names too.

Is that a "sin" too?

If God didn't decide this, who did?

Just a question.

Jesus said it:

Matthew 12:36 (King James Version)

36But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment.

You have heard that it was said to them of old: Thou shalt not kill. And whosoever shall kill shall be in danger of the judgment. But I say to you, that whosoever is angry with his brother, shall be in danger of the judgment. And whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca, shall be in danger of the council. And whosoever shall say, Thou Fool, shall be in danger of hell fire. -Matthew 5:21-22
