You’ve done some great things? God says, "Really? Maybe, like Bruce Nolan, you ought to try to do God’s job.

{Video Clip: Bruce Almighty - Start: Chp. 8 - 0:35:45 - Stop: Chp. 8 - 0:37:26 = 1:41}

Now, I know of no where other than the movies that God ever let someone do his job but he did ask a man named Job whether he would he qualified to do it or not. He asked, “Where were you when I laid the foundation of the world? Did you mark off it’s dimensions? Did you shut up the sea behind doors. Have you ever given orders to the morning? Or shown the dawn it’s place?"(Job 38:1-12) And of course Job kind of did what Bruce did... he got all sheepish and wished he had never said anything. Because compared to God we are not great.
