Wow, I'm sorry to hear that I've heard so often how religion can be a problem when it applies to only one partner.
Personally, I think you have to be true to yourself. I agree, teaching nonsense to children is not something I could stomach. And if your wife loves you, she should be able to accept you for not wanting to be part of Christianity just as much as you accept her still being Christian. I think you need to make a stand about it, and if she's a decent person, she will respect you for sticking up for your values and your happiness. You're not stopping her from doing it, after all.
