One logical approach here is to focus on the local and the small, where you and a relatively small group may have the ability to affect change. On a broader societal level it argues for federalism and localism to push things down to the level where engaged people at least have a fighting chance.

A period of strategic withdrawal, which precipitates a decline in the influence and reputation of the institution, followed by ultimate recapture, might be our best bet. Progressivism is an exclusively corrosive force, so if everyone with a robust worldview leaves, the decline is inevitable. The challenge will be recognising when we need to come back. A similar thing is playing out before our eyes with mainline and non-denominational churches.
