I wouldn't mind teaching religion objectively to my nieces and nephews.
You would have to teach the Universtity of Utah then. Objective instruction in the field of religion is not possible at BYU. [at least currently]. And as much as I appreciate BYU, the religious instruction there is not much more than a glorified institute, most of the time. IOW, it's a giant testimony meeting without much academic emphasis. The other parts of the school can be quite illuminating.
