If you were the child's guardian, you might try taking him to UU, their religious education actually teaches facts about the world's various religions. Since you aren't the child's guardian, you have no say in his reliigious education, and you should keep that in mind. You gave up any chance of having a say in his religious education when you refused to be his godfather. However, you are well within your rights to render your opinion honestly if he asks you questions.
Well being a godfather according to the church means incentive my brother to continue the christian faith, so refusing him religious education sounds contradicting. I refused because I never had official religious education, I needed it to be his godfather but I'd feel like a hypocrite doing, I preferred letting my sister do it since she is a believer, and the godfather is the son of my father in law from is former marriage (to give an equilibrium for the kids he had formerly). I am not the guardian but my saying can influence greatly my mum's thoughts. I don't think she'll send him to such education anyway, just like she didn't send me, she might teach some christian core teachings but she'll let my brother decide for himself later.
