Tony Perkins of the Family Research Council (Evangelical Right) and Jim Wallis of Sojourners (Evangelical Left) apparently agree on taking abortion off the table in the health care debate. While I think Perkins and Wallis probably agree on a lot of theological beliefs, I think this is the first time that these two evangelicals have agreed on anything related to social policy.

I actually have no idea what Jim Wallis's theological beliefs are – I can't recall him ever speaking or writing about them.
Russ: I guess I was assuming that Wallis and Perkins share similar beliefs in the resurrection, the divinity of Christ, the inspiration of the Bible, etc… You could easily make a case that they have more similarities than differences. Both claim to be evangelicals and I have heard Wallis sound pretty orthodox.
