Sin is a great subject. But a confusing one also.
When people are careful in minor rituals it is usually at the expense major law principles.
So even though term like sin are thrown around it usually has little to do with what the Torah actually consider to be sin.
The insane religious world are the worst offenders in this regard but not the only ones. But the trouble is they confuse the whole concept of what it means to keep Torah. Because they erase the Ten Commandments people get the idea that the Ten Commandments are not a part of keeping Torah.
Is there any concept of honor of your parents in the insane religious world ? Not at all. All the honor goes solely to religious leaders. Stealing. They might not kidnap your wife and children, but they will try to convince your wife to leave you. In short, there is nothing in the Ten Commandments they consider binding.
