> God, in his infinite wisdom, granted the man's wish.... here's an (old) joke: there was a righteous man, who spent most of his life studying scriptures and stuff... and so God saw it, and came down to talk to him. "o, the most righteous one" -- he said, "i had seen you from above, and had been so impressed that i decided to grant you one power: you can become the wisest man on earth, or the richest man on earth, or the most loved man on earth. say what you prefer?" "the wisest one" answered the man. so God granted him the infinite wisedom, and then asked: "and now, o, the wisest one, what can you say?" "i say, i should have taken the money" -- answered the wisest one.
