My DH & I are the same as you (although our agency is actually sponsored by the Lutheran Church - that's more a function of our rural area, there are no private agencies, it's either Lutheran or Catholic).
Our CW recommended we put some religion in our profile because it scared off too many PBMs, but we didn't feel it was right to say we are a "Christian" home when we're not. I believe we phrased it as "non-practicing" or something along those lines that was a little less harsh-sounding than atheist because we do have strong values that are more or less Christian - we just don't believe in God or follow a religion. The word "atheist" has a lot of negative connotations in the US so I shy away from describing myself with it in any situation.
Oh, and we've been waiting about 2 1/2 years; open to any race, open to some alcohol/drug use. We were matched earlier this year, but the baby's mom decided to parent him. We are currently matched with another PBM who is due any time now.
