krshNa says:

api chEt su durAchArO BhajatE mAm ananya bhAk
sAdhurEva sa mantavya: samyak vyavasitOhi sa:

If someone adheres to all bad practices but has undivided SEshatva 
buddhi for Me, he is a pious man (Sadhu). Ramanuja says such a person 
is vaishNavAgrEsara (best vaishNava). ParASara bhattar clarifies this 
SlOka tells that Lord does not discrminate on the basis of vrttam or 
habits.

bhUta dayA is a blessing for the Vaishnava and it is the natural 
habit of a Vaishnava not to eat non-veg. SrIguhapperumAL is the best 
SriVaishNava and all his dOshams (if any) are bhOgyam for the Lord.

What is Bhakti? swAmini dAsasya anurAga mayI sthiti: says Bhattar.
For the Lord, the state of love of the subservient chEtana. This is 
the basic definition.

archanA does not mean buying ticket in the temple for Bhattar, it is 
some service (to Him and His devotees) out of our Bhakti (anurAga 
yukta SEshatva budhhi).
