It makes the Bible reference to ‘pearls before swine’ very relevant.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
You are totally and absolutely wrong. “Do not cast your pearls before swine”, in its original Biblical context, is a warning against evangelizing certain kinds of hardened unbelievers.
Anything is possible.

Do you understand the meaning of the word 'relevant' ?
I'm not claiming that the original Biblical context is wrong. I'm saying that the concept can be applied to other situations, like this one.
MANY concepts in the Bible can be used for related situations. Many of the stories in the Bible are DESIGNED to be used throughout the ages as RELEVANT to other situations besides the 'story' given (which were sometimes fictional, and that's why they are called PARABLES).
After all, not many people today have to worry about whether or not the Camel can get through the eye of the needle, but the CONCEPT can still be used today to related incidents and situations. Do you not agree ?
