Comment:

In job application forms, there is an obligation to include you higher God beliefs, ahead of the Corporation who holds the reins. No religious beliefs means Absurdism, and then the Corporation will indoctrinate you into its own ethics.

The usual culprits are there:

Row 1. Christian, Jewish, Hindu
Row 2. Muslim, Buddhist, Shintoist
Row 3. Sikh, Baha'i, Jain.
Others: Rastafarianism, Zoroastrianism, Confucianism

Job application forms also ask you to specify your ethnic origin. In the light of the recent DNA evidence, this is not racial but a cultural question. Richard Dawkins has something to say about this. If you felt unable to answer such a rude question, you might get my support.
