Okay, I was taking some courses online at a Christian University. One of the prerequisites I was required to take was Christian Worldview. I got an A in the course but did not hold back on my Atheism. I came up with this extreme example just to make sure I was understanding the point the professor was trying to make: A horrible man named Bill lived on a quiet street in the suburbs. He was truly awful, abusive, always nasty to people, cruel to animals, and committed fifty murders. About six houses down was a sweet man named Tom. Tom was kind and considerate, always willing to lend a hand, someone you could depend on. But the thing about Tom, he liked to drink, and when he drank he made up stories. They were totally harmless, but they were lies. He told fifty lies about his exploits to make himself look much more adventurous than he actually was.
The professor told me that these two men, with their fifty sins apiece, were equally guilty in the eyes of the Lord. WHAT?! Yes! He told me the Lord is so offended by the fact that one would sin against Him that the nature of the sin is not really important.
