Last Thursdayism is easy to refute, dude.
Anyway - when evolution-believers' only response to any criticism of their ideas is to rant about YEC...
No, it really isn't. If your argument is that god created the earth with fossils inside it (or whatever other stage of the earth being created ex nihilo that includes evidence of it being older, the basic idea behind young earthism), how do you falsify it? How what evidence could be found that would prove it wrong? Last Thursdayism shows that no such evidence exists. Any such evidence could have been planted there at the creation of the world, whenever that happened.

And thus young earth creationism isn't science, because it is not falsifiable.

Now if you are arguing that the earth wasn't created with planted evidence, that is falsifiable, as we'd just have to find stuff that existed older than the date presented. And we have found things that are hundreds of millions of years old, dated with radioactive decay among other things.

No.
Then it's been disproven over and over via various dating methods, depending on how old you claim the earth to be. Including radioactive dating of fossils. No, the maturity argument they present doesn't solve that problem, and if you start claiming it solves every problem, then there goes your falsifiability.

So how old is the earth, according to you?

I suggest we move this discussion to the appropriate thread.
