美国EEOC明确禁止雇主因为宗教信仰而歧视应聘者或者员工。如果那个受害者还在，可以去劳动部门举报要求赔偿损失，保证罚不死你。

"人家担心这些人做手脚，搞破坏，出于工作安全的考虑不予录用"  坐实了因为信仰而歧视的事实。

参见： https://www.eeoc.gov/laws/types/religion.cfm

"Religious discrimination involves treating a person (an applicant or employee) unfavorably because of his or her religious beliefs. The law protects not only people who belong to traditional, organized religions, such as Buddhism, Christianity, Hinduism, Islam, and Judaism, but also others who have sincerely held religious, ethical or moral beliefs.

Religious discrimination can also involve treating someone differently because that person is married to (or associated with) an individual of a particular religion."
