It depends on your age and what the result would be if you told them. If you are still dependent on them, it could be to your detriment to tell them. If you are young, you may change your mind later. If it would hurt them deeply, you must ask yourself if there would be any benefit to telling them. Even if you are not sure if God exists, you may still want to live your life by the Golden Rule. Don't hurt people, just as you would not like to be hurt.

What is their religion ? And why are you pretenting ? are you
ashamed of your belief ? or just living the Lie because
all your freinds are ? what are you afraid of ? that God might
be real and you are in judgement !! , if so ,you are right on
that one . Get it together will ya . There is so much more to
live for . It sounds like your parents could use some help in
their belief as well . Ask them to read the Gospels and you
should do the same . May God Bless You & your family in
His truth and saving grace...., amen

Be respectful. Tell them that you are a young person looking for the truth and that at this stage in your life you don't know all the answers, and especially you are not sure about the existence of god. If you are respectful and not dogmatic they will hopefully by able to accept your path and they will hope that in the long run you will see it their way.

don't pretend, but don't go out of your way to tell them. if it comes up, then yes, let them know. you're not an atheist, so i'm sure they'll find a way to make peace with the fact that you don't have the same beliefs as they do.

It's best to be honest. But, it REALLY depends on your situation.

You can lie to them, BUT you cannot lie to God. Think about that please.
