Most people are very irrational, the most rational of us aren't fully rational and are still ultimately a slave to our passions, and theists tend to be more on the irrational side.
We are all extremely rational, since we all act according to what we accept as facts.
Just because you are a theist does not mean you are going to accept homeopathy or the existence of aliens. Except for the existence of God, every single thing a theist does in his daily life, from social interactions to operating machines like cars or Ipods to using our senses are ALL motivated and calculated rationally. Compared to all the things we do according to the action-reaction paradigm, believing in God is a small irrationality.
