I am along the lines of the Tao Te Ching, while it says that when you need something, use it, after you've used it, put it away. Never become immersed in anything, it breeds confusion and dependence. (Going along with the fact that you need to write to live.) And NietzSche thought that morality was shit, by the way :p I do not, for any reason, think that if a man is an atheist that he will treat me horribly, or a woman for that matter. I would NEVER date a christian or any other creation based believer, we would come to blows.
First of all, you write--which makes you a writer. Wear it proudly, there's not many of us left.
Second of all, I would generally agree with your immersion point--except writing. Sad to say it, almost every influential character in history has been totally fucked up in some way, most likely due to obsession. At the end of the day, those who write for fun will write for fun-those who write to survive will do the same.
As for atheist men, I completely agree with you. (obviously ) I also take your theory on dating. I wouldn't even have a problem with another's beliefs if they didnt' go against my morality or values. However, I have never met a Christian who didn't want to change me. That is exactly (I think) what you mean. Thank you very much for your input. ^_^
