I think parents should put it in this kind of context: "Here is what I believe but I am NOT you and I am not God with all the right answers. Before you decide what you believe you should gather as much knowledge and use as much reason and intuition as possible." Certainly you will have some influence but the child will also know he/she is free to find his/her own spiritual path. It sounds like you are basically doing that.
I am not as concerned as much about pushing political beliefs on children as I am spiritual beliefs.
