While they might accept you based on your objective qualifications, they certainly would not if they know you identify yourself firmly as Catholic. I think you know that, and are mostly asking if it’s OK to fudge the point. However, your post is slightly confusing. On one hand you say you are open minded, but on the other that you strongly identify as a Catholic, would not feel comfortable with Jewish practice etc. I don’t think you can have it both ways. Only if you are honestly interested in exploring your heritage and open as to how you might identify in the future should you consider answering the way your parents are suggesting.
