Is there a way that you will expose them to the different beliefs so that they can make their own decision?

My wife and I plan to take our kids to church at least periodically. I'll be honest that I'm not religious. I can't be. I struggled for years to force myself and it just isn't me. But I recognize the peace and community it can provide. If for nothing more than cultural knowledge, my kids should know about Christianity. Beyond that, I'd like them to explore other world religions as they are curious. There's a lot of good to be found in religions. I believe that they're all wrong, but that doesn't make them useless, and I understand I could be wrong.

I don't know exactly what we'll do. I just know that I'm more open-minded than when I first lost my faith. I see the positive aspects now, which I couldn't then. I figure I'll teach my kids as much as I can, but when they're older, their lives are their own to lead.
