An Awesome Irony

"Voltaire, speaking of the Bible, once proclaimed, "In 100 years this book will be forgotten and eliminated...". In his later years (1759) Voltaire purchased an estate called "Ferney" near the French-Swiss border. Twenty years after his death the Geneva Bible Society bought his former home and used it for printing Bibles. It later became the headquarters for the British and Foreign Bible Society. For several years they distributed hundreds of thousands of bibles world-wide, thus Voltaire's home became a major distribution hub for the very scriptures he assigned to extinction."
