I agree with JHS that you shouldn’t be bland, but at the same time I think you don’t want to come off as implying you are morally superior because you are an atheist and others aren’t. Personally, I think it’s as much a leap of faith to be a committed atheist as a committed deist (of whatever flavor). This could be a great essay or it could fall flat. You’ll have to be the judge of that though.
