Tie A Little Red Band Around My Wrist And Call Me A Believer

Madonna's newest addition to her family - her much talked about, controversial adoption from Africa, David Banna will be obiding by the laws of Judaism and waiting till his Chalake, or his third birthday, to cut his hair.

According to tradition, after Chalake, young Jewish boys are required to wear kippahs and start their religious studies. Madonna and Guy Ritchie have imposed the same regimen with their older, biological son Rocco. Indeed, says a source, Rocco is already bonding with baby brother thru "religion":

The two boys have formed a real bond and Rocco is always adjusting David's red Kabbalah wristband and telling him all about its rituals and beliefs.

I can't help but think that not everything Rocco is whispering into the little tyke's ears (er, variation of satanic verses on a theme called "I wish you were never born, you bloody brat"...) is innocent, but then again with Kabbalah comes maddening wisdom. .
