People don't read. Paraphrasing:
Jesus (J): "Why would you call me 'good'? Only the Father is good."
Muhammed (M): "Our Lord has decreed mercy upon Himself, so to anyone who commits sin out of ignorance and then repents and amends, He is Forgiving, Merciful."
J: "It's easier* for a camel to go through the eye of the needle than it is for a rich man to enter Heaven."
M: "Those who hoard gold and silver and don't spend it in the cause of God, give them news of a painful retribution."
J: "You have been told 'do not murder, for whoever murders will be judged for it', but I tell you anyone who is angry and insults their brother will be judged for it too."
M: "The righteous are those who suppress their anger and pardon the people. God loves the good doers."
I know you're paraphrasing and probably from memory, but you have one inparticular completely backwards- It is EASIER for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter heaven. Meaning, of course, a camel cannot pass through the eye of a needle, and therefore a rich man will never get into heaven, because in order to get rich he must have been selfish and greedy, which is ungodly. (I'm a heathen, so idfk what I'm talking about, but I learned this proverb from my religious ex-partner, and I think it's lovely)
100%! Thanks for the very important correction, my cat woke me up at 3 am and I started posting half asleep, lol (and you know exactly what the J-man was talking about! ๐).
Interesting fact: in... 2010-ish a Vatican historian priest released a book where he explained that Jesus was a jokester. A lot of his sermons in the Bible were haha funny for the people at the time.
Do you know what we call a dude traveling from city to city with an entourage making people laugh? :)
A comedian.
Humour is a sign of intelligence! And yes, the 'camel' is a play on words, as gamla in Aramaic means both rope and camel, and also a callback to Jewish oral tradition/Talmudic teachings where it's an 'elephant going through the eye of the needle'. ๐
