"How does the wisdom of God compare to the wisdom of the world?"

1 Corinthians 1:20-25
"Where is the wise man? Where is the scholar? Where is the philosopher of this age? Has not God made foolish the wisdom of the world? For since in the wisdom of God the world through its wisdom did not knnow him, God was pleased through the foolishness of what was preached to save those who believe. Jews demand miraculous signs and Greeks (ie all non Jews) look for wisdom, but we preach Christ crucified: a stumbling block to Jews and foolishness to Gentiles (ie all non-Jews), but to those whom God has called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God. For the foolishness of God is wiser than man's wisdom, and the weakness of God is stronger than man's strength."
