Some parents try to raise their children to be atheists. Not only is atheist ideology less conducive to people wanting to marry and raise a family (see: [[Atheism and global fertility rates]]), but atheism breeds arrogance in people (see: [[Atheism and arrogance]]). And arrogance causes disharmony in families. One of the quickest ways to knock an atheist or his/her progeny off their high horses is to charge at them with the lance of "atheism and bestiality" which will puncture their atheist armor and make them far more humble. A quick "Oh yeah, what about atheism and bestiality? Why are atheists more apt to engage in bestiality, Mr. Atheist? According to atheists bestiality is just an animal having sexual relations with another animal. Is that right, Mr. Atheist?".

In addition, shooting the bazooka of the issue of "atheism and bestiality" at an atheist who has not yet become a hardened and stubborn atheist may jar them out of their atheism. Atheists have a low retention rate in terms of holding onto their worldview (see: [[Atheism and its retention rate in individuals]]).
