<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">the gmara often lists , eg
acts that can as a single act genrate multiple
chiyuvim of chatat for example. and there is a
general sense of intensity of sin thru the punishment -- payment,
makot, mitat beit din, etc</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">i think other religions have
considerations of what is the WORST sin one can commit.</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">i wonder if we have a WORST.
i thought chillul hashem is the worst. but i
have also come across shichvat zera levatala as
the worst . [ this would be interesting if
true, since the tora doesnt mention it directly
post-sinai, nor list a punishment [? un-atonable?] ...</font>
