I agree, my post was meant to convey that this notion that one will be judged differently for ~reasons~ and that a man's opinions on the hierarchy of sins matter to God are both ludicrous and, funny enough, the same rationale onlyfans whores with ~Only God Can Judge Me~ tattoos on their ass say.
The free will aspect is crucially important and works incredibly well because it allows believers to excuse God and explain away Man's imperfection and ability to be corrupted, even though He supposedly made us. It makes Him infallible in the face of what He's created. (The Garden of Eden story is utterly hokey compared to the rest of the stories in the Bible and falls apart under scrutiny trying to form the "argument from God" the rest of the Old Testament relies on)
Its also one of the oldest debates in human history. Boethius wrote Consolation of Philosophy 1500 years ago on the very topic of free will vs predestination under God.
If it didn't, then you aren't capable of sin to begin with. Because your crime would be preordained by God's will, and thereby you've disproven your entire faith.
So then you cannot commit a sin of any form, because God preordained your actions. Jesus died for nothing, because Man committed no sin that needed to be forgiven in the first place as God created them with the fate that they would do so. Seemingly for no reason but the lulz and to then punish them with misery for something he forced them to do.
But at least you don't have to be responsible for your actions, because that's what this really is about. You can just throw up your hands and let God do all the work for you.
God also gave man free will to sin as he pleases. His claim came with that understanding, and the consequences therein.
That's kind of an important part of the entire dogma.

Free will doesn't exist.

It is preordained. God's will is never violated
