Welcome to the forums mate.
I do not know your family, and I do not know you. What I type may be helpful or it may not. I fully appreciate that talking to your parents about this is easier said than done, but have you actually considered telling them?
You say that being in church and the things it entails make you sick, then I believe you should stand up for yourself. Don't kneel and pray to a God you don't believe in. I know standing up to your parents will be very hard, and it is easier said than done. I can't think helping though that the time you spend in church and praying etc is wasted time, which could be spent socialising or learning.
I remember a quote from a Harry Potter film..."It takes a great deal of courage to stand up to your enemies, but a great deal more to stand up to your friends". Your parents are your friends, but you must be courageous and stand up to them. If not you will regret the time you waste.
I hope I have been of help to you.
