What do Young Earth Creationist consider to be the best SCIENTIFIC evidence for a young earth (6000+ yrs old)?
If a YEC had to pick the three strongest arguments/evidences for a young earth, what would they be?

To date there is still no visible or known evidence of a genetic mutation or of an evolutionary process that can be seen to increase the information in the genome. True Science, science that is in pursiut of truth, has proven time and time again, by controlled laboratory experimentation, that 4 billion years is not enough time for an organism to collect and process enough random or select information to construct or reconstruct dynamically advanced organs on it's own. ie. The complexity of the eye and other sensory perception organs alone, would be impossible to mutate in any given amount of time. If it were possible to mutate advanced organs, then we should be witnessing advanced mutations everywhere. If it is true that the closest link the species of man has is the chimpanzee, then why are there still chimpanzees? Or why are there not chimpanzees processing information in their genome to mutate into a human species? Why are there no advanced human mutations? Surely, we should be witnessing the development of a superior, "super human"! Where are these super species at?

I'm no expert, by I'd say polystrate fossils. They occur in many places on earth. Basically, it's a tree (200-400 years old, as dated by its rings) that sticks through multiple strata that are supposedly millions of years old. The best explanation for this is a global, sudden, massive Flood, as the Bible and most ancient cultures describe.

1. Humans are evolving; people in my generation are losing their wisdom teeth.
2. Science is based on what we can discover, not what we hope for.
3. Who the heck would want to be a YEC?

Three arguments? You are asking too much. The only have zero evidence. But anyone who is stupid enough can still believe that the earth is 6000 years old.

You see they have seen no evidence that supports otherwise.
This is because when they sense the threat of science and logic, YEC close their eyes, plug their ears, and sing loudly until said threat goes away.
Edit: Vin listed God twice, does that make him a polytheist?

So far, they've come up with no scientific evidence.
