Explain to her why religions exist in the first place; as social clubs and community hubs. They are a service industry, providing advice for married couples who are getting into arguments. They console the grieving with promises of an after-life. They do all kinds of communiy service and do so under the expectation that they will be financed for all their work. Atheists must teach by example. Point out all the michief and hated and wars the worlds religions have provided the world, all because of the tendancy of so many "believers" to become fanatics. Just give fair and honest warning and set a good example.
The existance of a "God" is a moral impossibility.
