You don't have to believe as they do, but that's no reason to turn against them. Obviously, you've never told them how you feel. Why do you think they're going to turn against you? Family is the tightest relationship you have. Think about what they've done for you during yur lifetime. No one is going to care more about you than family.
That's not necessarily true. My family disowned me for not being Christian enough. We have only spoken through lawyers in the past 15 years. Just last week, an acquaintance of mine asked me to help her find a part-time job. She confided that over Christmas she and her long-time boyfriend went to her parents' house for the holiday. When they found out he was an atheist, they kicked him out of the house, and told her they wouldn't continue paying for her schooling as long as she was with the atheist. Family bonds doesn't always overcome Christianity.
