Actually overheard in a fossils display at a science museum in the South:
Kids (approx ages 5-7) : Wow, look at these!
Mom: Kids! Who created the earth?
Kids: God did!
Mom: When did he do it?
Little girl: Like, 1,000 ago?
Little boy: No, it was more than that!
Mom, pushing kids out the door: That’s right, more like 4 or 5 thousand years. Now let’s just forget all this stuff about millions of years, OK?
