Sins aren't relly given a hirearchy of "bad" in the bible.
They're just listed as "all things that make you less then perfect."
In general the Christian ideal of perfect is really one of "living of the spirit" or as it's generally known now "living of the mind."
Having sex is for pleasure is "giving in to the physical" and as such is seen as stunting the spiritual and the mind.
The ideal Christian layed out in the bible is generally, well... jesus sort of.. In otherwords someone who things soley of the spiritual and philosophical and helps others.
One who is soley thinking for that of others.
I mean, think of the horrible selfishness and wrongness that is, simply just being on the internet and wasting time debating such an arguement.
In truth, considering the situation of others... every single thing we do not in service of the whole is quite the selfish and damaging act to others.

I know that there's no hierarchy of sins, my problem is for some things being considered sins at all. Christianity has too may illogical restrictions which in the end degrade and damage people.
I hope you were joking about the bolded part and don't really beleive that.

You mean italisized?
Well no, I'm not joking. Think of how many people could be fed based on internet service, and how many people would be helped in the time spent online.
Every action for the self in a way is a sin against others... and people only do things for themselves due to selfishness.
