Line 41:
* In the TV series version of ''[[The Hitchhiker's Guide to The Galaxy (TV series)|The Hitchhikers Guide to The Galaxy]]'' the subsection of the Babel fish entry on the non-existence of God represents God and Man using the famous Sistine depictions.
* Used in every version of the opening credits of the long-running British arts programme ''[[The South Bank Show]]'', with an animated spark between God's finger and Adam's.
* [https://web.archive.org/web/20110202235411/http://www.thepiemaker.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/08/pushing-daisies-s2-1.jpg This] promotional image created for ''[[Pushing Daisies]]''.
* In ''[[Doctor Who]]'', the Fires of Pompeii, the Doctor steps out of his TARDIS {{spoiler|to save a doomed family from the titular eruption.}} The TARDIS is unaccountably shining behind him, and then there's a shot of his hand, reaching out for {{spoiler|the father's}} as if he's God and the human is Adam in the painting.
