How about teaching evolution at Sunday school?

I can remember being in third grade and taking a field trip to a museum. My class was informed we were descendents of apes complete with the little ape to man poster on the wall.

Hmmm. Our local paper just ran a story about the third-graders here going on a field trip to a creationist museum near here. Apparently they were told that nearly all fossils on earth were deposited in some single, unspecified flood.... And there was a picture of several kids in front of a "fossilized human femur" about four feet long. Hmmmm.

It's a public school, and an avowedly creationist museum. I don't know at all what the kids have learned in class (or even in detail what they heard at the museum) other than what little was in the paper.
As to the "femur," there was just a picture of a femurish-looking bone, of gigantic size, displayed on a 15-foot or so tall outline of a human skeleton. I'll try to get to scenic Crosbyton, TX in the next few weeks and bring back a full report on this marvel. The article sort of indicated that the museum curator thinks that all fossils are from the same time, but the exhibits are from various places.
