I would wait until the kid brought up the subject and then I would gently question his beliefs. I would try to make him defend the most absurd things that he holds true. This would especially include the stories in the Bible such as Adam and Eve, Noah's Ark, the resurrection, etc. I would ask what makes him think these things are true. If his answer was something like, "They're in the Bible", I would ask if he knew who wrote the Bible. If he said something like, "People inspired by God", I would ask how he knew that was true. And so on...
I would try to make him realize that his beliefs weren't supported by any evidence and I would ask why he doesn't believe the stories in the Koran. Hopefully, he would start to question things on his own. This way you aren't being confrontational and you can't be seen as trying to force your beliefs on your kid. You are simply asking questions.

Science flies us to the moon and stars. Religion flies us into buildings.
God allowed 200,000 people to die in an earthquake. So what makes you think he cares about YOUR problems?
