There is this notion that not all sins are created equal. I do tend to agree with it, but I disagree with anyone who takes this as far as to say that certain sins "aren't really all that bad." It's not just "the Bible" that says that this notion is wrong; even Jesus Himself, the Son of God, has this to say:
Repent or Perish (Luke 13:1-5, NKJV)
1 There were present at that season some who told Him about the Galileans whose blood Pilate had mingled with their sacrifices. 2 And Jesus answered and said to them, “Do you suppose that these Galileans were worse sinners than all other Galileans, because they suffered such things? 3 I tell you, no; but unless you repent you will all likewise perish. 4 Or those eighteen on whom the tower in Siloam fell and killed them, do you think that they were worse sinners than all other men who dwelt in Jerusalem? 5 I tell you, no; but unless you repent you will all likewise perish.”
