Hmmph. He was obviously a twat, but is my line of arguemnt sound -
i.e. that you can see (or even detect) stars more than say 10,000
lightyears away a robust argument against a "young" view of
creation/existance?

Aside from the "God just made them look that way," the other argument 
against your stars are older than 10,000 years is that the Earth was 
created however many years ago, but stars could have been created earlier 
than that.

As long as God can do "anything," they can place themselves in a pretty 
much unassailable position.  Especially since the evidence that God can do 
anything is, "God said so."  You should save your breath to cool your 
porridge. <g>
