In the Christian religion, the Bible says that gay or incest actions cause someone to go straight to the lake of fire. Well i have a question: is it really incest if it is a step sibling or an adopted sibling/cousin?? thanks

Ok, I think you have the wrong person here. This is something I have never even remotely considered since I do not buy into Christianity, nor do I have any attractive relatives :D
Anyway, for my two cents... I cannot see how it could be considered incest if it is an adopted child. A cousin is a different matter since you are related by blood.
Of course if one grew up with one's adopted brother/sister one would probably develop similar feelings that "normal" brothers and sisters have. Society would also look at it similarly. I have no idea what Christians would think.
Personally I look at this from a more practical point of view. We dont inbreed so as to avoid genetic problems. That is most likely why we have developed this view on those kinds of relationships. It is a means to preserve our species (you can see evidence of what can happen when the gene pool is too small by looking at some royal houses throughout history).
Those are my thoughts. Sorry I couldnt be of more help.
