Spreading atheism seems like an unusually inefficient way to raise the sanity waterline: people are highly resistant to it and it’s more of a group affiliation than a mental toolkit. Spreading rationality (e.g. the concepts listed in EY’s sanity waterline essay) and letting people deconvert on their own seems like a better path to me. (Deconverting on your own might make for a better rationality exercise, also.)
