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.

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.
Last Thursday.
God created your with your memories as-is this morning when you woke up
Earth will be created in 2036. This is just a rehearsal.
All this has happened before, and all this will happen again.
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.
