Well Finally! Some Conservative Evangelicals "see the light" on Arizona's Immigration Law

Good psychology says to praise the behavior you want to see repeated. So today let me lavish exorbitant praise on a brave group of some of my fellow Evangelicals who have "seen the light" regarding the Arizona Immigration Law. The link to the CNN article is above so you can read the whole thing for yourself, but here is the money quote from the article for me:

"Discussion of immigration and government immigration policy must begin with the truth that every human being is made in the image of God," the National Association of Evangelicals said in a recent resolution backing comprehensive immigration reform. "... Jesus exemplifies respect toward others who are different in his treatment of the Samaritans."

Well whaddaya know?! Conservative Christians in the news for being compassionate and Christ-like! What a novel concept!
