→Growth of Christian apologetics
The situation has become even worse for atheist community in recent years as the quality of their arguments has diminished and the percentage of atheists in the world [[Global atheism|is decreasing]], while the proliferation of [[Christian apologetics]]/apologists is increasing in the world (see also: [[Atheism debates]] and [[Rebuttals to atheist arguments]]). For example, there is the [[Trinity Graduate School of Apologetics and Theology]] initiative which offers quality Christian apologetics for free to third world country students and charges extremely low costs for others. In addition, [[Ratio Christi]] is launching Christian apologetics clubs at college/university campuses. In addition, in recent times, there have been notable cases of atheists dodging debates (see: [[Atheism and cowardice]]).

Today anyone desiring to know about the Bible, and its connection with science, evolution, history, archaeology, has read any number of books on this topic. Literally thousands of titles are available, and he can choose anywhere from the most simple books to the most technically advanced ones. Thus the modern apologetics movement has been able to arrest the way in which rationalists have been bleeding the Christian church.<ref>[http://www.brethrenassembly.com/Ebooks/Apol_001A.pdf Introduction To Integrated Christian Apologetics, Dr. Johnson C.

=== Summary of why implicit/explicit atheism have limited importance ===
Given the abundance of evidence for the existence of God and for Christianity, God's creation testifying to His existence, the complete lack of evidence of evidence for atheism, the growth of global desecularization, atheistic ideology and its nomenclature has become in increasingly irrelevant.
