any small closed group like church, tends to inbreed knowledge

Seriously, I don't view this as a problem. This isn't the early part of the 20th century when media was limited to radio with a few stations and transportation was by horse and buggy.

Its hard for any group to be totally cut off from the larger society and todays ubiquitous monolithic media culture.

This is the problem that many good religious people impose on their kids each day wrt to biology and evolution.

Sorry, it doesn't hurt kids to grow up believing God created the world instead of thinking everything is a big meaningless accident. Biology and evolution isn't the issue anyway - the issue is philosophical naturalism.
