What can Christians do to stem Atheism or keep people in their congregations?

What could be done to combat humanist or atheist influence in society from a Christian perspective? What could Christians do to grow their numbers? I'm genuinely curious.

But regardless, that's not a "bash" of religion, it's an objective observation of how organized religion works.

That's nothing more then an opinion of course. No shock though coming from an atheistic liberal such as you.

If that's not how it works, roughly in a nutshell; than how does organized religion operate? Indoctrination doesn't necessarily imply a negative.

The only thing they can do is ramp up the indocrination efforts.  The more people think, the more likely they are to ditch organized religion.  Ignorance and scare tactics are the best way to keep people coming back.

To be honest, I didn't mean my post as a rebuttal, or something because you responded to Fezzy. I mean that like all socialization, indoctrination is a key part. It was negative in Fezzy's reply, but I don't mean like that.

Religion is TAUGHT through the Bible and other spiritual guides. No one holds a gun to someones head and forces them to stay a Christian once they grow into adulthood.

My point is, what occurs isn't just teaching, it's indoctrination into to a particular ideology. Not only do you learn about Christianity, and it's tenets, but it's philosophical, and ethical outlook becomes a shared view. The same way a child is raised in a culture, and attends school. Indoctrination occurs everywhere.
