"If you are friendly with someone who happens to fall into the temptation of fornication, offer him your hand, if you can, and deliver him from it. But if he falls into heresy and you cannot persuade him to turn from it, separate yourself quickly from him, in case, if you delay, you too may be dragged down with him into the pit." ~ Abba Theodore

What a good reminder, but I find it so hard to winnow out these things with non-Orthodox friends... I don't want to cause barriers.
