Regarding the sin of homosexuality: This sin is labeled as an "Abomination" in various places in the Bible, such as Lev. a8:22 and 1Kings 14:28. It is my understanding that an abomination is a sin which provokes God's anger and is in a different category from sins which do not automatically provoke God's anger. This understanding is different from many Christians, such as Billy Graham, who say that since all sin separates people from God there is no difference between an abomination and stealing a candy bar. It also seems to me that anything that is an "abomintaion" to God will be extremely repulsive to a believer, not an understandable sin such as when a person in need steals just barely what is needed.
