I feel like people should make more left-wing christianity propaganda.
Like maybe a shirt with that quote about "a camel being able to pass through a needle before a rich guy goes to heaven." Then like a picture of a camel looking at a needle and then underneath some rich bro in a fancy car burning in hell. I'm talking shitty boomer/christian/"AI" cartoon style.
There is hella material in the gospels for this kind of propaganda. The sermon on the mount could make a whole series. Sadly I never see it.
are there still people that think it's camel?
I don't see any translations that use anything other than camel.
The original Greek says “camel” (in Greek).
There’s no other translation for that word, but there apparently is a theory that maybe the original Greek was wrong and they meant to say “rope” which is spelled very similarly to “camel” in ancient Greek: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eye_of_a_needle#Christianity
That would be a very convenient theory if you were a rich man who wanted to hoard your wealth, but otherwise I don’t see any reason to assume the original Greek word was wrong.
