When siblings with different beliefs must make family decisions together

My sister and I were both raised in a strict religious household and while I've found my way to a gentler version of faith, she's gone completely secular, and now our parents are aging and we have to make decisions together about care and end-of-life stuff and we can't agree on what they would actually want. Every conversation becomes about our different relationships to what we grew up with.
