How do I deal with a religious family as an atheist?

talk to them and tell them that you are and spend time getting to know them, even share some things.

Personally for me, I realize that people will have different beliefs and that's alright! At the end of the day, we should both accept each other's beliefs even if we don't agree with them. Letting them know your beliefs is up to you and the repercussions of it; ie. If they will kick you out, you might want to hold off on letting them know, but if you know they will still support you, then I don't see why not. Thanks for asking :)

Be supportive of them to set a good example. If you're kind to them about their religious beliefs, it is likely they will be more undestanding of you. If that still doesn't work, you can go to a family counselor.

Just accept them for who they are. If someone outside your family has an issue defend them because family is all you have.

You're an atheist. That doesn't mean you don't have to respect what others believe so if you don't want to involve in any religious matters, tell your family about it. Tell them your perception.

One thing you'll need to accept is that while there are many religions, you may not be partial to any. You can either confront one of your family about your Atheism, or even just do your best to acknowledge that you and your family have different paths.

I have dealt with this personally and the best way is with shared respect. Respect their beliefs and have the expectation that they respect yours, as well.

Telling them about your beliefs is difficult, and they may not understand at first. Some families may accept you while others will neglect you. Mine have accepted me, but are still trying to convert my beliefs. I try to change too, for their happiness, but it doesn't seem to be working. Maybe showing them that you care about their beliefs will help...

You are jumping too quickly to the most difficult proof. Believing There Is a Heaven is perhaps the hardest thing out of the whole story to swallow.

The most important thing in this sort of situation is to be upfront about it and try and explain to your family why you feel that way and make them understand the way you think. They way you do this is very important you need to sit with them and calmly explain everything in detail so that they understand how you feel and answer any question they ask truthfully.
