I have a few .NET developers who only want to use the MS AJAX Toolkit and think JavaScript (and any JS Library) is evil. I tried to explain that if you treat client-side development like a grown-up language you can build maintainable code … but I assume that the classic ASP days have left a mark on these guys. Anyone have a suggestion to help convince this type of developer that learning jQuery will actually benefit them in the long run as the industry is trending back to ‘lets get close to the metal again’ w/ MVC for example?

Tell them microsoft endorses jquery and that it’s shipping with MVC
