Are you sure they didn't just misinterpret their results? That seems to be the case a lot these days.
Yeah Mister Warren Buffet made one hell of a jester. The Bible says it’s about as hard for a rich man to enter the gates of heaven as it is for a camel to fit through the eye of a needle. Something like that maybe he read that to and is beginning to feel his mortality. And maybe he just wanted to be a nice guy.
Smurf wrote Likely they did, but according to the basic understanding of microcosmos thats the explanation. Wether they found a flaw or a breakthrough, it is anyway a major step in mapping the universe. Joe wrote Eye of the needle was one of the gates of Jerusalem. No camels allowed. Probably possible to get one in though. Wether it be a rabid wild one, or the kings favorite desertracer. It is anyway a good argument that religion is more than opium for the people. It is a drug for the upper classes as well.
I know about the small entrance through the wall story. Actually I believe it was a good idea in order to route camel traffic away from the pedestrian area. Same theory holds true anyways. But I don't think anyone is certain weather the parable came from a reference to the gate or the gate got its name in reference to the parable.
