God Made Dirt; Dirt Don't. . . .

I heard this on the radio a long time ago:

Scientists had reached the peak of human development.  They now knew everything there was to know and had finally come to the conclusion that mankind no longer needed God.

So they went to God and said, "We don't need you anymore.  We know all there is to know and can do anything there is to do.  We want you to leave."

God being God and infinitely patient, looked at the scientists and said, "OK, let's have a contest.  You make a man in your own image, and I'll make one in Mine.  Whoever does it quickest and best wins, and the loser has to acknowledge that the winner doesn't need them."

The scientists talked this over and decided that this was an excellent idea.  So they set up a time with God for the contest and got down to business.   

On the day of the contest, God and the scientists met.  God looked at the scientists and said, "Are you ready?"

"Yes,"they replied.

"OK, GO!"

So the scientists bent down and began gathering up dirt, but God stopped them saying, "Hold on a second!"  The scientist looked at God, confused.  God looked back at them smiling and said,

 "Use your own dirt."
