Somewhat amusing that the article starts off using a parable from the bible. Maybe it's more amusing to someone outside the the US.

If it was a parable from Greek mythology, would it be less amusing? I don't think you need to be Christian (I am not) to find it an apt metaphor.

But it's not from Greek mythology is it? It's always Christian mythology that is used in these sort of openers. It's almost always the default goto here. What lessons can we draw from the good book today?

The lesson we fail to draw every single time is a masterclass in humility.
