Not all sins are created equal. Some are classified as "an abomination" and sins against nature, including the homosexuality perversion. Not all sins are created equal. Some are classified as "an abomination" and sins against nature, including the homosexuality perversion.

Actually, no one sin is greater than another, except blasphemy of the Holy Ghost.

Which is unforgivable,

You are absolutely correct, LV R.
Just a matter of definition, not “greater” or lesser.

“Actually, no one sin is greater than another, except blasphemy of the Holy Ghost.”

Actually, this true as far as any sin making one guilty of being a sinner, but the Bible evidences a degree of guilt, in terms of accountability, (Lk. 16:48) and types of sins:

(Colossians 3:5-8) “{5} Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is idolatry: {6} For which things’ sake the wrath of God cometh on the children of disobedience: {7} In the which ye also walked some time, when ye lived in them.

{8} But now ye also put off all these; anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, filthy communication out of your mouth. “

Furthermore, it was not for being impatient or smoking that God destroyed Sodom (nor was it primarily for inhospitality), but for gross sin and remaining impenitent which was a product of their idolatry, the mother of sins.

I would think you could add the below to your list of things that really tick God off.

There are six things the LORD hates, seven that are detestable to him: haughty eyes, a lying tongue, hands that shed innocent blood, a heart that devises wicked schemes, feet that are quick to rush into evil, a false witness who pours out lies and a person who stirs up conflict in the community.

Proverbs 6:16-19 NIV

In the KJV "detestable" is "abomination"

Now personally, "Abomination" sure sounds like "ObamaNation" to me.
