So on the subject of religiously themed art, music, and literature. How do you reconcile love for a piece of religiously inspired work with being a non-theist?

For instance, two of my favorite pieces of music are Supper's Ready by Genesis, and Faure's Requiem. I have even sung both Baritone solos, the Offertoire and Libera Me, in concert.

I approach it much the same as I would the Illiad and the Oddysey. The inspiration may be religious or mythological, but the emotions are human.
