Even Einstein didn't know everything. Ok, so I knew the answer an hour ago, but could not get the format correct.
I thought I'd heard that riddle recently, and guessed that I'd heard the answer "humble pie". God might agree that humility is greater than He...if He is humble. If God surpasses in all virtues, He would have to be humble. And isn't pie great?
