Most atheists read the King James Bible ?? - straw poll please

Ok. I just read the oddest statement on Quora to answer the question on the most popular translation of the Bible.

It said that most atheists read the King James version of the Bible and that is why you are atheists.

I could see that as they are likely display gifts that are not read. Unless you are are expert in Elizabethan English. (deliberately translated to older English than Jacobean) it is close to incomprehensible.

Out of morbid curiosity, which versions of the Bible is the membership here familiar with?

I'll reply back to Quora if I can find the question again.
