Is the word retard seen as bad as the word nigger? Are there other words in english that are as bad or almost as bad as these words?

Not at the moment.

The n-word is usually treated as worse than everything (unless you're of an appropriate African American lineage). But offense is a national sport, lower point values can be assessed for other slurs. Words and their point values are dynamic. Though currently the most values go up.
