Nice work on both of em. As soon as I saw the E one, I knew immediately, but didn't want to post, since it was similar to mine.

The answer is me.

I still dont agree with this..

If "that man" is me, then I could substitute it into the riddle.

"that man's father is my fathers son" would be "my father is my fathers son".... which he's not.

This is the oldest trick in the book!


The answer is nothing.


Nothing is greater then god
Nothing is more evil then the devil
Rich people need(want) nothing
Poor people have nothing
And if you eat nothing you will die


I win!:D

Never thought of it that way...I've been looking more at it in sort of a 3rd person perspective for lack of a better term. As in 'that man's father' is pointing at someone else, and just leads towards misdirection.

And mach's the only one to figure out where I got the strawberry riddle from as well, so he got a lil extra rep. :p

Dam just ralized i was too slow. At least i gave an explanation

Winder what nothing tastes like...
