Fun fact, there's a metaphorical dick-measuring contest in the bible, 1 Kings 18, 21 onwards (had to google it). Basically, Elijah wanted to prove GAHD was greater than Baal. Long story short, GAHD proved HE could light firewood that's been dumped with water 4 times, while Baal was busy ignoring his followers from dawn to midday.
