If it is your family and you don't want to become estranged, don't tell them to fuck off. On this you will probably have to learn to agree to disagree. You are allowed to make up your own mind.
Religiosity people often resort to "he's just going through a phase" or "they are angry at God, or searching for answers". They often cannot understand let alone accept your lack of belief. They think everyone, deep down, must believe.
It's something you are going to have to find your own way to deal with. It might be to move away and tell them all to eff off, or to do your best to ignore it, or to try and argue or reason with them every chance you get. There is no one right answer.
Best of luck to you. Don't let it get you too down!
