Reply to comment by MechaMagikarp in Being a young man, religious, and with a high income, may make you more likely to gamble on sports, according to international research which also suggests that betting on sports, daily fantasy league play, and betting on e-sports all increase the risk of developing a gambling problem. by MistWeaver80
Well that’s just simply not true. Mortal sins are far more severe than other sins. It’s why there is a ten commandments on top of an entire library of stories.
The ten commandments are not the top ten rules. They are literally the ten subjects that all other sin falls into. The “sins” that you are comparing to “mortal sin” are one in the same. Scholars from Christianity and Judaism regularly group those “lesser sins” in with the commandment that they relate to. Why? Because the ten commandments are just the major overlying principles that you MUST abide by. The lessers are quite literally variations of those commandments. Sorry but absolutely no.
Somebody skipped religion class. Feel free to read up on the difference between mortal sins and venial sins.
My bad. I didn’t realize we were only talking about the Catholic view of the Ten Commandments. I was most definitely referring to the real view of the book. Not any one of the three’s deeply opinionated views on it.
Right, you talk about religion, say for a fact that all sins in the Bible are treated the exact same way, but OH you conveniently forgot about the second largest religious body in the world. Wild.

Catholicism doesn't exactly have a reputation to stick to the Bible's rules, quite frankly. What Catholicism says isn't always what the Bible states.
In this case all sins are treated equally per the Bible, with the only unforgivable one being blaspheming the holy spirit.
Read above where i quote scripture from the Bible.
