    Negative thoughts are typically self destructive.

    Sin of the Christian mythology is basically anything that is forbidden by the deity.

    They have almost nothing in common, aside from that the concept of sin of Christians is a really good basis to create negative thoughts.

    It depends on what your negative thought is about. Is it about a righteous person or Islam.

    All 'thought/imagination' is ego = vanity = sin of Pride (the only sin!)!

    Pride blinds you to Love!

    Thus the 'warning' label of 'sin'!
