Apparently the poll is not a hit with the religious crowd here so I'll do my own responses.

Jesus stated that it was easier for a camel to fit through the eye of a needle that a richman to get to heaven.
Was this just another parable or do you think there is more meaning in that scripture?

Generally from what I have understood a camel is a milch beast or a beast of burden that can be ridden and carry a load.

I do not think making a good living is a sin; it can very easily lead some folks down that path though that will lead to major sins.
