Raising children into religion. -

So from the atheists that I have talked to about their beliefs, or lack thereof, it seems like a big issue for a lot of them is the fact that children are raised to believe certain things, and to be a member of a certain religion. So I thought I would gather your viewpoints on this.
Do you think it's right to raise your kids religiously?
Personally, if I ever have kids I would raise them to be Christian, but also let them be aware of other religions and ways of life. If they ever came to me and told me that they did not want to be Christian, I would be disappointed but I would make it clear to them that they should believe whatever they feel is right. I don't see anything wrong with giving your children something to believe in, if you believe strongly that it is true.
