I guess my way would be to make friends with someone first. Once they find out you're just a regular guy, and maybe pretty cool too, then you can safely bring up religion. they'll either realize that atheist does not equal bad person and be open to conversation, or they'll cut off all contact with you. If they were going to do that, it was likely inevitable anyway, so might as well get it over with.

Just talk about atheism like you would any other topic. Calmly and friendly.

Good video to watch, if you want to know how common the Jesus story really is.
