>One hundred years from today the Bible will be a forgotten book.

No. That's bullshit. Even older books and stories from dead religions aren't forgotten. That book and its impact on society ensures it will be remembered. For better or for worse. Mainly worse.

Compare to all the failed prophecies Christfags have made since the second century.

He's true
The bible of today isn't even the same book as it was

He wasn't wrong. How many of the millions of American "Christians" have read even 5 pages of the Bible? That's not even counting the Europeans.

Seeing as it took over a millennia for the Bible to be widely (and in many instances legally) read in the vulgate and by non-laity, this isn't really much of an argument

The difference is that people nowadays COULD read the Bible, they just choose not to.

Doesn't make it any less forgotten though, since people are reading it as much as they did in the past. Some better evidence would be to compare the number of churchgoers of today with those of Voltaire's time (proportional to the Western population)
