Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Basically - Ben is challenging the idea that Darwinian evolution is *the* definitive explanation for how life came to be, and as such should not be questioned!. He is defending scholars who would like to have intelligent design (or any other theory) be allowed to be discussed in academia, without fear of reprisal (loss of job, tenure, etc!.)!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Looks like the only movie that I remember that has the character Ben in it is "The Running Man" which was released in 1986!.

The full name of that character is Ben Richards

Ben was played by Arnold Schwarzenegger!. The movie is quasi-
Orwellian!.!.!.!.it tells what can happen in society when a game show called "The Running Man" is a fearful deterrent to those who want to commit major crimes in futuristic Los Angeles!.!.!.the movie takes place around 2020!.

And Ben's belief!? I think he has two sides!.
Although he still believes in organized violence like in the game show "The Running Man", he also believes too in not killing innocent people!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
