When I was being raised as a young earth creationist, the earth was supposedly 12,000-20,000 years old. Then it was 10,000 years old. Then only 6,000. After I outgrew that nonsense, I joked that in a few decades YECs would say that their god created the earth in 1980, and anyone older than 40 are agents of the devil sent to test your faith.
6,000 to 12,000 years old is what I heard. I’m guessing that this “Christians Against Science” page is a joke community that is making fun of YECs by saying it’s 4,000.

Of course, the universe was actually created in 1970 and anyone claiming to be older than 54 is an agent of Microsoft sent to test your faith in Unix.
Ahh, hence why there are no negative Unix timestamps.
Half the earth was actually created in 1969. The other half was finished 12 hours later =]
The universe was created along with the release os temple os. Everything before are just memories implanted on us.
Last Thursday.
I could never get the hang of thursdays
Shriveled, and a little to the left.
God created your with your memories as-is this morning when you woke up

I was also raised as a young earth creationist and it was always 6k years old for me but I could not begin to tell you why.
The 6,000 years comes from the lineage of Jesus as set down in the Bible with names and ages of those in his genetic line.
