If the Bible is the world's best selling book is it also the world's most least read book in the world?

Answer 1

It would not be logical to conclude that the best selling book automatically means it is also the world's least read book. Quite the contrary would seem appropriate to guess at, since interest in a product usually leads to an increase in its production. While it is true that many Bibles are ordered for proseltyzing and are handed out with only the hope they may be read, many people buy Bibles for study, devotion and personal religion and avidly read them or have them on hand for reference. Indeed, the sheer amount of books put out per year that fall into oblivion after being published would forever ensure The Bible remains a popular book, even if only Christians read it.
