Some of the happy clappy churches here preach a nifty idea called "prosperity theology",claiming god wants his servants to be prosperous. You can just forget about "it's easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven"

Diffidus:

Yes - I was much amused to watch the singer Cliff Richard rationalising this one. He pointed out that the saying claims that it is 'easier' for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle, not impossible.

Yes Cliff, and how many camels have you seen passing through the eye of a needle?
