The use of "greater" is completely ambiguous

Sorry. I didn't think "greater" was one of those big words that grownups use to confuse the simple. Look it up in the dictionary. It won't be that hard to understand. Really.

I found sixteen different definitions of the word "greater" in the American Heritage Dictionary (that's just for use as an adjective). To which definition do you refer when using it in the context of "greater than ourselves"?

In the context of soft drinks, if I refer to a beverage that is "greater" than Mountain Dew, to what am I referring and why?
