Religion is ultimately a personal and faith based part of peoples life. The expression that you can lead a horse to water but not make him drink is very fitting here. There is no way to "convince" someone who doesn't want to believe in god(s) if they don't want to or aren't prepared to. The most you can do is try have them see that there is something unifying and greater than mankind. That doesn't make it god(s) nor is it in anyway conclusional evidence, but its a premise that needs to be grasped before someone can accept religion and it the thing that many atheists/agnostics have a hard time with.
In case you are wondering I am a former Christian, former atheist, fomer Buddhist, former agnostic, liberal/unifying Christian.
