My problem is that my best friend recently made friends with a guy that I don't really like. This guy drinks excessively, smokes a lot of pot, swears constantly, gets into fights, mooches off my friend all the time, and treats women like dirt (he's cheating on his girlfriend, women are just objects to him). Am I being a bad Christian by not wanting to be friends with this new guy? I know that Jesus spent time with all sorts of "sinners" during his life. I care about this guy as a fellow human being and I don't wish him harm or anything...I just don't want to be friends with a guy like him. My friend says that he's a fun guy to spend time with and that I should try to be his friend. My friend thinks that I'm too judgemental, but think I'm just calling it as I see it. Does that make me a bad Christian? Can I love my neighbor as myself and still not want to be friends with him?
