First of all, those are appeals to authority, which are fallacies of reasoning. Second, I'd prefer you didn't put words in the mouths of some of the great thinkers.

Oi. I just get upset when people say someone with a sound mind is illogical. "Faith" is illogical, right? like having "faith" that you are people? or having "faith" that your alarm clock will go off in the morning?
No, it's not like that. The faith I have in my alarm clock is based on inductive reasoning. Faith in God (or any god), is not.

If you're looking for a Christian-oriented Perl programmer, look in a church. Saying that you filter out candidates based on religion is a bigoted slap in the face.
