I forseee this guy in a few years at a Youth Group meeting telling everyone how he's a "former atheist" and how he fell into a pit of amorality and violence when he abandoned Jesus.

He doesn't have the ability to make moral choices because he's been raised to appeal to authority... a authority which he has denied. He'll either figure out a moral code for himself, or continue muddling along without a compass until he gives up and is Born Again. Lead him to a non-religious source of authority or teach him that religious texts can still have good advice even if you don't accept they're infallible.
