My husband and I are both firm believers in less "main-stream" religions, therefore put a lot of thought into what we would do when it came time to have children. We were both raised strict Southern Baptist with at least one atheist influence. We searched and finally found a church where our children can get a well-rounded idea of what all different religions are like. The church's doctrine includes respecting the inherent value of our fellow human beings and their right to believe as they will... We belong to the 1st Unitarian Universalist and are very happy with the experience. I was surprised at how often my boys will come to me with questions about what _I_ believe, comparing it to what they've learned in Sunday School that week, and (I hope) forming a basis from which they can draw their own conclusions eventually...
