Depending on their age, don't be surprised when they sometimes arrive at bizarre conclusions. At this point, attempt to help them sort it out rather than dictate a solution. The goal is to teach them how to think, not what to think.
I almost forgot the point I was trying to make. If you do this, your children will be well prepared to challenge people who attempt to shove God on them.
Exactly, I told them when they are older if they wish to be religious in our house they must first study at least 4 religions. That way at the very least they have an understanding of how other cultures think and what those cultures believe.
