You're concerned with political messages in a movie (mostly about women in power) and then force religion on your children. You do see the irony right?
I have to recognise that I'm in a odd situation here and so you're right about that. What I'll say is that marriage and parenting can be complex things and, although I'm an atheist but my partner isn't, we did talk about this aspect before committing to having kids. Personally I do my part to pass on what I believe to be the good aspects of life onto them and, although they are taught Judaism, I also teach them critical thinking, questioning everything that doesn't seem right or fair and so, in that sense, I'm no hypocrite.
I didn't realize what sub this was, and for that, I apologize. I respect your decisions with your teaching to your children and as an atheist myself, my question/concern would be if your children are taugh Judaism and you're teaching them to question everything, that (depending on the age I guess) could be very confusing to children.
As confusing as being brought up as a Catholic boy and being taught the same way by my parents and learning to be aware enough to not fall for the church rabbit hole. I know of at least two other boys that attended youth catechism same time as me that weren't so lucky and we only found out about the abuses years later. Today one can't question the current narrative without ridicule, even if you're questioning the method and not the merit...
