you're atheist/agnostic without

a) Offending them
b) Having them hate you for it
c) Having them try to convert(?) you

You need to crack open the phone book and memorize some out of the way church's name and hope they don't know anybody that goes there. Works for me. Keeps me out of religious discussions with my customers too.

I have a lot of atheist friends and didn't deal with options 1, 2, or 3 that you have posted.

Can't be done. Being devoutly religious is like being a woman. Inherently irrational. :p

If you tell them you're an atheist and they hate you for it, better to know that now than later. But really just tell them you don't go to church or you're not religious.

He's making fun of the "art" subsidies the government issues.

And just say "I don't go." Not too hard. If they press, then get aggressive. ;)
