Acting in a way that brings about someone's death, even without the intention to do so. Proportionate reasons for the action must be weighed in this judgment of guilt. (Sixth Commandment Violation, Exodus 20:13)

It is the moral responsibility of adults to know their sexual orientation.  God made both the heterosexual and homosexual, and it is critical for those so made to not feel shame for who they are made to be by Him. Others become homosexual because of difficult life abuses who find safety in relationship with same sex partners.  Many homosexuals participate in the social fad for attention and perverse doings of sexual release against the goodness of man created in God's Image and enjoy the ever-increasing deviant and lustful sexual exploits; for these, their deviancies are sinful. Homosexual deviancy is the same type of sin that heterosexual deviants act upon. Once again, it is a matter of the presence of lust and deviant, nasty action that creates the deeper spiritual problems within the perverse that separate them from their Creator.   (Seventh Commandment Violation, Exodus 20:14)

The worship of idols and false pagans; it transfers the omnipotence of God to anything other than God.  Honored idols in our society include Satan, power, popular cultural objects and people, pleasure, race, ancestors, government, money, guns, constitutions, rights,  perversions, and fetishes. (Second Commandment Violation, Exodus 20:4-6)

(Sixth Commandment Violation, Exodus 20:13)
