He's a really bright kid - they both are - this one deduced Pascal's Wager at the age of 5 - only instead of God he used Santa Claus. You know, "if God exists then I should believe in God, because otherwise I might not be saved, but if God doesn't exist, it doesn't hurt me to believe in God." Ben's logic went - "if Santa Claus exists but I don't believe in Santa Claus, I might not get presents, but if Santa Claus doesn't exist, it doesn't hurt me to believe in Santa Claus." I think his proposed Amendment would work perfectly. I want him to suggest it to George Allen, our new Senator, and Tom Davis, our Congressman. He and I both worked for them, so maybe if he mentions that it will be read by the men themselves rather than just a minion.
