I really am avoiding the irrevocable act of telling them I am agnostic, and it would be a difficult thing. Eventually one of them will point blank ask me something I will have to either lie or answer truthfully, and while I want to be true to myself, I can easily see being alienated by several members of her family if I am truthful, and that would be quite painful. Again though, they are two states away and I visit them only a few times a year, but it would be an issue.
