In the comments to the Buddy Davis post, sullynyc points me to the jobs page for Answers in Genesis (the group that runs the Creation Museum), and what he says is true: in order to scrub toilets at AiG, in order to be considered as a possible AiG housekeeper or janitor, or food service worker, or a barista, you need to show up with the following:

* Resume

* Salvation testimony

* Creation belief statement

* Confirmation of your agreement with the AiG Statement of Faith


Food services people need to demonstrate "Consistent witness for Jesus Christ." Baristas need a "Passion for God." (Housekeepers and janitors, presumably, can just pray quietly to themselves.)

The Statement of Faith does allow for (some) evolution -- just not in the case of people:

The various original life forms (kinds), including mankind, were made by direct creative acts of God. The living descendants of any of the original kinds (apart from man) may represent more than one species today, reflecting the genetic potential within the original kind. Only limited biological changes (including mutational deterioration) have occurred naturally within each kind since Creation.

Keep this in mind if you're thinking of changing careers.
