In the 70's it began. I was there to watch it, in my own family in the late 60's. We were raised RC, my Dad was a non church attending Christian. My older sister got pregnant and was refused a Catholic wedding and the Catholics on Mom's side refused to go to the wedding. She wasn't even showing, and only my parents and his parents knew. They were engaged. That one thing turned my sis off from church, scripture, and even baptizing her children. So atheists or agnostics tend to raise more of the same. I have had many friends over the years who raged against the hypocrisy,those days were driven by drugs, sex, and rock and roll. Religion begins at home, it is practiced daily, and it does not have to be strict. Thanking God, talking about God in Christ, saying grace, making it alive to your child, doing it with love and joy, not beatings and joyless. And there is joy in all of God's creation, the bumble bees and songs of birds, the charity that Christ wants us to share, gratitude, humility. Discussions. I raised a child like that and now I have a man like that. The world is out there to influence us, you have to make your home more enticing than whatever it is the world has to offer for your child, praise must be on your lips in the everyday things, it works. But you must practice what you preach because kids will pick up on hypocrisy by the time they are 7. No one can defeat the Holy Spirit, but if you deny him in your own life, you are the one defeated.
