Bahaullah. Bit of a misconception. Didn't declare all religions true, declared them all truly his.
My opinion, there pretty much has to be some future where christians can, on the one hand, appreciate the development of the christian religion for what it was in mere reality, and, on the other hand, still honestly believe in a savior. Otherwise, it's just another zues story, and it will be remembered as much in the not so distant future by a new group of religious people who have to start all over again - the real problem with humanity's endless schisms.
To hear christian fundies tell it, we're already there...and who's fault was that? The completeness with which intellectual bankruptcy and pure unabashed disinterest broke the back of their almighty god is stunning. It's a picture of the fall of the roman gods, the vacuum that christ filled that changed history.
