Since you think the Earth and presumably the whole universe is under 10,000 years old, can you explain or rationalize this: Since we have had modern science, say in the last 100 years or better we see ice layers build up quite regularly and know those layers in the last 100 years come with seasonal snows and such. Since we have a history of at least 100 years in the ice core data which would only go down a few feet to get to say the snow of 1900, we see exactly the same depth variations in snow levels in the ice core that goes back a solid 200,000 years, there are miles of cores stored in universities around the world and they build up a picture of the weather on earth for that time frame and by studying subtle clues in air bubbles embedded in the ice, we can see what was happening, like whether X year back was in an ice age or a warming period, which has cycled around several times in that quarter million year duration.
Since the ice layer variations are just like what we have seen for the last 100 years, and at the bottom of the cores they look pretty much exactly the same as now, how can you explain away that data to try to convince people the Earth is only 8000 years old or thereabouts?
