What I am saying is that in 2-3 generations more people will recognize it to be weird, ancient mythology, not much else.
If you read books from Voltaire's time, you will realize how much weight the Bible had in his time vs today.
The impact the Bible once had on society has been diminished as it continues to become irrelevant.

Yes. The diminishment of religion over the generations is in large part because science advances continually. Religious 'truth' is just a catch-all term for the stuff that science hasn't uncovered yet. As science advances, the unknown gaps (a.k.a. religion) get smaller.
Religion is built into the makeup and the mindset of all people. Even if science was smart enough to understand this today, scientists might not admit it, because they often have a personal religion that wants to know the answer the way they want to know it... rather than what the truth is.
