Honestly, if this makes him happy, I don't see a point in coming out at all. Is your life as an atheist really that different from that your father thinks you live as a Christian?
I suppose it was easier for me because A) I had a horrifying experience in my religious grade school, B) as a result of A, it was easier for them to understand why I left Christianity, C) the church in question we went to was really corrupt, and by the end, we were Easter-and-Christmas Christians at best, and D) my mother ended up the only one who still believed in God by the end, and I disliked her so I was fine with not meeting her approval in this way.
Well, that and the friction that inevitably comes after 2000 years of moral and scientific progress starts pushing it off its pedestal.
