As a Catholic they always preached it to me as an actual needle.
It was until I left the church and visited a Christian church (trying to fit with my girlfriend at the time) the pastor talked about the “gate of Jerusalem” and that it was difficult but not impossible (of course the pastor arrived in a BMW X6M to the service and was asking for the tithe).
That’s when I looked online for this but there is no strong evidence, and the doors called “eye of needle” are from Europe from the year ~1000CE
Ah, I was going by what they taught me at baptist church when I was a kid. I guess they lied to me. I’m shocked!

If only you would have asked him if he thought his BMW would have been able to pass through.
