A Riddle worth thinking about
What is greater than God, More evil than the devil, The poor have it, The rich need it, And if you eat it, you'll die?
(When asked this riddle, 80% of kindergarten kids got the answer, compared to 17% of Stanford University seniors.)

I know the answer too but I'm sure that there are others who haven't heard it before.

The answer is nothing.
Nothing is greater than God. Nothing is More evil than the devil, The poor have nothing, The rich need nothing And if you eat nothing, you'll die.

Okay, so I'm not as smart as a kindergardener. I wasn't as smart as a fifth grader either!

I don't think that I figured it out last time. I was given the answer. I even had my husband helping me to figure out the answer and we still couldn't get it.

I'm so stupid that I read it and thought to myself "what the heck could the answer be? Nothing is greater than God..."
