James 3:14-16
13Who is wise and understanding among you? Let him show it by his good life, by deeds done in the humility that comes from wisdom. 14But if you harbor bitter envy and selfish ambition in your hearts, do not boast about it or deny the truth. 15Such "wisdom" does not come down from heaven but is earthly, unspiritual, of the devil. 16For where you have envy and selfish ambition, there you find disorder and every evil practice.
17But the wisdom that comes from heaven is first of all pure; then peace-loving, considerate, submissive, full of mercy and good fruit, impartial and sincere. 18Peacemakers who sow in peace raise a harvest of righteousness.

Wisdom of God always wins over the wisdom of the world. God will win in the end.

Since the wisdom of God is really just the wisdom of a small part of man, I'd say the wisdom of the world outwieghs the wisdom of God.
Is God trying to win something? Or do Christians just feel like they are on the winning team?

God's wisdom, fo course. The only problem is that on the earth our own wisdom will win over most people, because we are trained into it. It takes a lot of willpower to overcome peer pressure in society. But, in the end..God always wins.

wisdom of God Vs. wisdom of the world? Is there a difference? well, as far as I know, the wisdom of God applies to this world, read the book of proverbs, and tell me if it doesn't apply to this world.

I think that's a loaded question!
I also pick the wisdom of the world.

Sure ... and along with all that peace, good fruits and sincerity we get:
Isiah 45:7 "I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things."

The universe is God, so you have no chance against that duo unless you're a brilliant scientist.
