Only the gods are beyond *our* comprehension.

This is an interesting chart -- we say "it's Greek to me," but what do the Greeks say? (Arabic, it turns out.) What about the Arabs? (Hindi.) And a crap-ton of cultures point at Chinese for sheer buh? factor.

But the punch line? Apparently the only language the Chinese feel is utterly beyond them . . . is the language of Heaven.
