"If there is no hierarchy of sins, why do Christians seem to harp on endlessly about this particular one? Why don't we hear more about onanism, or not keeping the Sabbath, or not honoring your father or mother? Shouldn't all these sins get equal time? Hell, why don't we hear Christians spend more time decrying HOMICIDE?!?"
The point I'm trying to make is that it's only a small subset of Christians who make a big deal out of certain sins. I don't think that this second Christian band is part of that small subset. They seemed much more passionate about spreading the message of God's love for all people.
I may be reading more into their statement than they meant. However, being a Christian myself, and worshiping at a highly conservative church, I find that most of us concentrate much more on grace and love than on lists of sins.
Don't mistake the noisy RWNJs as good representatives of all of us who love God.
