Don't. Other people are perfectly entitled to hold their religious beliefs, just as you are entitled to hold yours.

If someone whose blind faith makes him or her feel obliged to convert you, simply explain that you have your own, personal beliefs which are different from his and that, since you do not wish to convert him, it is not a subject for conversation.

Second, the secret testimony during the Inquisition was to protect all parties involved, and believe me, they needed the protection. For a real look at the Inquisition, please pick up Diane Moczar's book Seven Lies About Catholic History.
