I am not a Christian, but I'll offer a perspective anyway, since I never see anyone else tell it this way.



Quote:What is sin?

Sin is doubting or disobeying Jehovah. Doubting is the bigger part of that. Eve's first sin wasn't when she bit the apple; it was when she entertained the serpent's argument.



Quote:Do you believe thoughts can be sins?

Doubt is a sin, yes.



Quote:Do you think that you have to act on thoughts for them to become sins?

No.



Quote:Are some sins worse than others?

You can think of some as worse that others if you want (I certainly do) but even the tiniest sin is enough to earn you eternal Hellfire. And that's what the big sins do too. So, in that sense, they are all equal.

You cannot come before god (go to Heaven) with any blemish on your soul, and any sin, big or little, counts as a blemish.
