For we have spent enough of our past time doing the desire of the Gentiles, and having walked in lewdness, lusts, drunken binges, orgies, carousings, and abominable idolatries.
and abominable idolatries: Peter places fleshly sins and service to idols on the same level. "Abominable" means "contrary to law and justice, illicit, criminal. These idolatries were forbidden by Roman law. They must have been pretty bad" (Wuest, I Peter 112). All such was disgusting to God.
