I've realized the only non-Biblical arguments I've seen for it are jabs about how the 4.5B year estimate is unreliable due to dating.
I've yet to see a positive scientific argument for a >10,000 year Earth.

I think the evidence offered for the earth being between 6-10 thousand years old, is based on the genealogies in the Bible, from Jesus, back to Adam, coupled with the idea of a 6 day 24 hour day time frame of creation...
I dont know of any strictly scientifc evidence or argument for an Earth of only 6-10 thousand years of age...

I've yet to see a positive scientific argument for a >10,000 year Earth. I have received radiocarbon dates in the 10-11,000 year range. My immediate colleagues have some even older.
Anything else?
