YEC don't, and can't, believe in a young earth because of scientific evidence.
This despite the fact that many YEC's do claim to believe because of the scientific evidence? Look in the geology threads on this site. You'll find many such claims.

Are you quoting someone? That last fragment 'ossils and the rocks' is suspicious.
quote:
In order for animals to be preserved so remarkably in rocks throughout the world they had to be buried rapidly.
Rapidly being instantly to upwards of many years. Ever watch crime shows of TV? The police find bodies that have been laying on top of the ground for years and are still full skeletons. Eventually falling leaves will bury those bones and after that they just kinda sit there. More leaves fall and the bones end up deep under the ground. Pressure turns the dirt to stone and there you have it.
We have layers upon layers of this stuff. It didn't accumulate in a few thousand years.
quote:
Therefore the rocks don’t represent millions of years after all.
This does not follow from what you wrote.
