Let us read what Paul said in the Bible:
"For the foolishness of God is wiser than man's wisdom, and the weakness of God is stronger than man's strength. (From the NIV Bible, 1 Corinthians 1:25)"
Let us analyze this verse from Paul:
1- Regardless of how smart and stupid GOD and us humans are, our intelligence will never reach even the stupidity of GOD!
2- GOD is a fool.
3- GOD is weak.
4- Man is more foolish and weaker than GOD.
5- The comparison itself is very insulting and degrading to GOD Almighty. It is also limiting to Him since our finite and limited intelligence and strength were compared to His infinite Attributes

In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
1.1] All praise is due to Allah, the Lord of the Worlds.
[1.2] The Beneficent, the Merciful.
[1.3] Master of the Day of Judgment.

[1.5] Keep us on the right path.
[1.6] The path of those upon whom Thou hast bestowed favors. Not (the path) of those upon whom Thy wrath is brought down, nor of those who go astray. (Amin)

You are taking what is supposed to be a comparison and twisting it into your own thinking. It means that God is infinate is wisdom and strength. No man can ever be more powerfull or smarter than God.
The Bible is truth, you have to have knowledge when you read it, if you take it out of context than it is not truth anymore. Jesus taught in parables, they were not ment to be taken literaly, but they have a meaning behind them.
the saying "I'm as dumb as a rock" it doesn't mean I have literaly no inteligence
the saying " I am as dumb as God is wise " is supposed to mean that God is very wise.
I hope this has cleared up your confussion.

Which god are you talking about? Zeus, Apollo, Athena, Venus, Allah? Yaweh?
I vote for Robert Ingersoll. At least he wasn't a
figment of someone's imagination.
