Is there a greater sin?

Is there a greater sin?

Dear Editor,
I would like to ask Pastor Ira Thompson of the Bethel United Church of Jesus Christ, who commended the PM’s “enlightened” responses on the BBC’s HARDtalk programme, what the Bible says about fornication and adultery, based on the fact that he is upholding biblical Christian values.
Aren’t these sinful acts that should be denounced just as fervently as homosexual acts? In the Bible, weren’t people stoned because of the acts of adultery? So, if these are all sins, when and who decided that one was a greater sin than the other and that God, who made us all in His image, is going to preferentially castigate homosexuals?
