I don't see how you can avoid teaching your kids what you believe in this area, and I don't know why you'd try. I think the crime is in using religion as a crutch or shortcut (e.g., "You shouldn't steal because God can see you..."). I'm an atheist, but I teach my little girl that many people believe strongly in god, and they could be right. I told her that no one can really know for sure, you have to decide based on what makes sense and feels right to you. Her mother is christian, but not of a particular church.
The important thing to me is that my daughter is raised to be a good person, and that neither depends on, or is contrary to, religion.
