As a borderline atheist/agnostic, I don’t really mind my kids learning about religion, they’re even in a Catholic school (not my idea though). I’ll actually tell them what I can about Christian beliefs and other non-Christian religions as well, as a sort of subtle way of showing them, “None of these people have a monopoly on the truth. If this other religion’s beliefs sound weird, then think again about what they’re teaching you.” I don’t try to be condescending or insulting or anything, I don’t want my kids to feel like I’m pushing them one way or another, but I want them to know that there isn’t a single version of the “truth”.

I think if I’ve done my job correctly as a parent and instilled my kids with critical thinking skills, the more they learn about religion the more it will push them away from it. I’d rather they come to a decision on it themselves, rather than just blindly following me. If instead they do become religious, then that’s fine too, the same way I wouldn’t mind if they came out as LGBTQ+ or as a Swiftie, whatever happiness looks like to them is ok by me.
