Yawn...apologetics at its finest. Come on, I would have more respect for followers of a myth if they at least held their hands up sometimes and agreed with what it obviously fucking means instead of squirming.
The Quran came with appointed interpreters, the Prophet and the 12 Imams. If the nation united on following them, then we would know all the meanings to the verses of Quran. But as they were prosecuted, and a lot of lies were attributed to them, we don't know what is the true interpretation regarding all the verses in Quran. However as far as this verse goes, we have an authentic hadith that supports it being to separate from/distance yourself from them.
