When asked this riddle, 80% of kindergarten kids got the answer, compared to
17% of Stanford University seniors.

[b]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?[/b]

I'm sure some of you have heard this one before...

The email this came with also said this:

[i]Send this to 10 people and then press shift and you will get the answer.[/i]

...Which is a total ****ing lie!!!

I never understood the difficulty people had with that one.  The first time I heard it I got it as soon as they finished the first condition: What is greater than God.  People with faith all seem to get it right away [;)]

I don't believe they should be asking kindergarten kids this "riddle" at all.  I would probably be more mad about this than the finger printing scandal.

That is the thing

People who are not religious think more into the answer. That is because to us non-religious folk there can be greater things than god, greater evils than the devil. It is possible to have less if you are poor, and even if I was rich I doubt I could ever want nothing. Bunk ass riddles…..
