It is likely that someone who felt the need to include that information on a
resume would probably also be the type who was constantly evangelizing in
the workplace. That would be a valid reason to not hire the person because
they would be interfering with others doing their work.

Of course the problem with this is that it is technically illegal, as is
considering marital status, age, etc.

I would also have to ask why the "secular humanist" is so unprofessional as
to not be able to work with a born again Christian?
