on? Are you a Christian and believe that Jesus was more special than everyone else in every way or do you think he was exceptionally good in some ways and untactful in others? Do most people even think about this or do they blindly promote people that are in their organizations because of social ties, tickets punched and the like with regards to common creed without even thinking about it?

A new ager, he/she is open to new ideas and adaptable. A born again Christian employee would be endlessly trying to convert and justify his/her sad little life to anyone who is within earshot. However, discrimination laws prohibit such decision making, sad but true.

I am a Christian (not the born-again type). While I would like to say that I would hire the most qualified person for the job, I would probably hire the New Ager over the fundamentalist (if that is what you mean by 'born again').
As for the rest of the question, I would say promotions in the work place are certainly determined by social connections and what not.

I would hire the New Ager because I would want someone who is open minded in a management position.
It's a hypothetical question, people!

I'd hire whichever was more qualified, so, I think the new ager would probably be more qualified since he/she went to a reputable university, not some backwoods bible college

If someone refused to hire me because of my religion, they would wind up on the wrong end of a law suit. Federal labor laws prohibit discrimination on the basis of religion. If I was hiring anyone, I would not ask, nor care, about their religion.

If I were hiring in management, I would be aware that labor law prohibits discrimination based upon religion.

I wouldn't hire based on religion.. in the U.S., it's illegal to even ask such a question.

It would depend on his qualifications and professional attitude.
