"Play God" = Đóng vai Chúa -> Chỉ người có ảnh hưởng lớn đến cuộc sống, hạnh phúc và cả cuộc đời bạn; chỉ người cứ tỏ ra mình là nhất có quyền quyết định tất cả.
Ví dụ
"But most often than not, it is almost like you play God and you go, ‘Hmm, I want to create this human that exists. But this human likes these things, this human is moved by these things, this human is passionate’. This person exists somewhere in the world. I think most people view casting as directors finding the actors. I think often, it is the actors finding us.
Singapore is not an isolated community in a far-flung corner of the planet. And we learnt that very well when SARS hit us in 2003, that viruses can spread fast and furious on this small congested island of 5 million people in unending contact with visitors and businessmen and workers from all parts of the world. The public stocks of essential medical items should have been checked and monitored all the time and not to be hogged by anyone. Make it easier and not unnecessarily difficult for all Singaporeans to take care of themselves. Don’t draw lines and play God.
The second temptation is more insidious (quỷ quyệt, xảo quyệt), the destruction of God as the source, centre and end of all things. Set in The Temple the devil carefully juxtaposes (đặt cạnh nhau) Jesus role as the coming saviour with our great spiritual temptation (sự cám dỗ tâm linh), the subtler one to manipulate religious faith to suit our own ends, to demonise and control others, or worse still to make God in our own image, exactly what the first reading from genesis tells us in the story of Adam and Eve' sinful behaviour. The antidote (cái trừ tà, thuốc giải độc) is clear: do not play God with God and remember who you are, God's creation and one of God's friends!
