A fear of atheism is unjustified given that atheism lacks proof and evidence that it is true and due to the fact that [[Christianity]] has an abundance of evidence to support its veracity (see: [[Christian apologetics]] and [[Rebuttals to atheist arguments|Refutations of atheism]] and [http://www.conservapedia.com/Atheism#Criticism_of_atheism_and_the_atheist_community Criticisms of atheism]). The most rational response of Christians to atheism is to engage in Christian [[evangelism]], disseminate Christian apologetics material and to use various means to thwart state [[atheist indoctrination]] in their societies.
