Evolution: How Old is the Earth -- 10,000 or 4.5 Billions years? Part 3

Some Christians read the Biblical text and conclude that the earth is ten thousand years old or little older. They further argue that geological finding does not contradict their interpretation of the Scripture. Other Christians read the same Biblical text and conclude that there is no indication that compels one to conclude the age of the earth as ten thousand years or so. So they take the help geological finding and conclude the earth is very old. The age of the earth matters to evolutionary theory because the theory requires millions of years for species to evolve. So if the earth is indeed as young as ten thousand years, theory of evolution is at stake. 

I take the latter position, which is to say that the Scripture does not compel to me take the age of the earth of 10,000 years or 50,000 years or a million years or a few billion years.  Some of the geological formation may rather appear to be very old when it is a very recent formation. I have come across certain Christian writers bringing to light the fact where older finding suggests a particular geological formation to be very old when newer research finding presents evidences that the formation is actually young. Thus taking such examples, these writers present their case for a very young earth. I don't think these cases establish that the earth is indeed young. Even if there is just one evidence that proves that certain geological formation or a rock piece or the formation of coal/petroleum or something of that sort is million of years old, it is strong enough to refute the arguments for a very young earth. Whereas young earth proponents would have to prove that this formation or that formation and the many many other formations are indeed young too. But this is not happening!
