That's a huge stretch tying unbelievers to wickedness.
Other points are valid.

If so, then they are by definition 'wicked'. The wicked believer expelled in Corinthians was a believer who was sinning. Are sinners sinning? Do they sin?
Anyway, if the bible indicates the lost are 'saved' by Christians 'going forth' with the gospel, then why do we reverse that and establish a pattern where the lost 'come to church to hopefully get 'em saved'?
