Most all of our laws are based on Judea-Christian ethics. Can you think of any crimes that are not sins?
And most all of our laws call things crimes that are crimes in most religions.
Theft and murder were crimes before Moses got the 10 Commandments.
Also, you are looking at it backwards. Whether any crimes are not sins is not the point. Plenty of sins are not crimes. Homosexuality is one of those. To make it a crime based on religious doctrines would violate the 1st Amendment.
The point that I am making is that suicide is a worse crime (sin) than bullying.
Ok, suppose for a second that you are right. And?? Since suicide is the worse sin we should ignore bullying?
The difference is that once someone commits suicide there is nothing we can do. But we can try and do something about bullying.
