I think that while we are both talking about fruit, I'm talking apples and you, oranges. I'm opposed to any and all sin, however, I admit that I sin daily.
I think it's one thing to judge someone on a particular sin or undesirable trait. It's another to judge sinners for being...sinners. We are all sinners.
I guess a lot of how I feel stems from how I was raised. I was raised believing that if I hung around sinners, I would turn into one. As it turned out, I sinned a lot more by hanging out with my Christian friends because, well, I was judgmental. Yes, don't hang around that girl because she wears pants and her mom smokes, but I can hang around the Christian girl who has long hair and wears skirts even though she tells me how many boys she has had sex with this year.
As it turns out, I found out that I can have sinner friends without partaking of their sin. I have also found out that just because someone preaches against sin doesn't mean they don't have skeletons in their closet.
