I'd think that evolution of language would be something that every atheist would believe in...
I'd also think that the languages death would be beneficial to the original text, seeing as Koine Greek and Latin now cannot change meanings of words and make the originals unknowable.
On top of that, the same debates that are going on now in Christianity are the ones that went on right when it started too. The Arians = Jehovah's Witness. The Pentecostals and Swedenborgians = Sabellianism/Modalism. The majority of the world = Corinth. The only notable exception to this is the Mormons. They're new. The only one that isn't going on right now that has already happened is the Albigensian movement (they wouldn't have kids because that would be bringing a person into the sinful world. Ironically, they died out).
The Lord bless you and keep you; the Lord make his face to shine upon you and be gracious to you; the Lord lift up his countenance upon you and give you peace.
