The question is ambiguous. Cheating on what? Tic-tac-toe? The bar exam? Your wife? This would affect the gravity of the sin. Cheating on your wife is Adultery. It is clearly against the Commandment. It is ALWAYS a Mortal Sin. In the other types of cheating mentioned, gravity of the sin is relational to the gravity of the act. I would say that cheating on an important test is a Mortal Sin.
The difference of them is that the Venial sin is not really deadly,but the mortal sin is very grave.It also not allow you to enter heaven and purgatory but the eternal condemnation in hell,while the venial sin can put you to purgatory,not straight to heaven.
mortal and venial
The word venial is an adjective. He explained to her that it was a venial sin. Some synonyms include forgivable and allowable.
According to Roman Catholicism, a venial sin (meaning "forgivable" sin) is a lesser sin that does not result in a complete separation from God and eternal damnation in Hell. A venial sin involves a "partial loss of grace" from God. Then, a temptation is the act of tempting or the condition of being tempted or something tempting or enticing. It can be a venial sin if you are thinking of doing it, but if you are just being tempted and not falls to it. it is not a venial sin. Thus, it depends upon the situation. Hope this helps.
The opposite of moral is amoral. It means to be without morals.

Venial and mortal sins
Mortal sins are more serious than venial sins, and they have more serious consequences: With mortal sin, the life of grace is lost and the sinner is in danger of hell. With venial sin, the life of grace is weakened but not lost. Even so, venial sins should not be taken lightly, since habitual venial sins can harden one to commit mortal sin.
Catholics view sin as an act that God finds offensive. Catholics believe there are two types of sin, venial and mortal. Whereas a mortal sin takes a person out of God's graces, a venial sin does not. Catholics believe that all sins can be forgiven by God; no sin is too big for God to forgive.
Mortal sin. a example of a mortal sin could be murder, suicide, and more. Any sin that involves serious matter, knowledge, and consent of the will is mortal; then there is a venial sin. it is a less serious sin. You should still go to confession for either one of them though it is not strictly necessary for the remission of venial sin.
There are two types of sin. Venial sin is a non-serious sin, when the sinner does not know it is wrong. Mortal sin is a serious sin, when the sinner is aware of what they are doing.
