[Harry Potter] What would happen if Voldemort decided not to kill Harry when he was a baby?

Let's say he decided to ignore the prophecy.. would Voldemort manage to conquer the magic world if he hadn't gone to try and kill Harry when he was a baby that resulted in him being weak from the counter-magic Harry's mum conjured? What future world would Harry Potter be living in?

It is heavily implied that had Voldemort ignored the prophecy he'd have been unstoppable.

But the lure of a PROPHECY about him - given his infatuation with the gaudy aspects of magic - was too much and his vanity asserted itself. 

IOW, a narcissist gonna be fascinated with himself.
