I was taught this at one point (though I'm not Christian), but isn't the existence of such a gate irrelevant since the meaning of the phrase is unchanged? Like, either way, the point is that a camel is too big to get through the thing.

    The way I heard it IIRC their justification is the gate is small but not that small so it's a bit hard to get a camel through but not, you know, that hard and definitely not impossible

    Why would he even say this then though lol

    "Peace, love, God, but also have you seen that oddly named gate? It's crazy small! Like, a camel could probably get through, but it'd be tough. This is like a rich man going to heaven for some reason"
