Title: How do we know Venus is much older than the Earth?

In this video it is explained why Venus is older than the Earth. bad link

Establishment science thinks Venus and all the other bodies in our system are all the same age. Yet, the observations tell us otherwise...

Can you give us a summary of the evidence?

"Like all the planets, Venus formed approximately 4.6 billion years ago when the Sun and the Solar System came out of the solar nebula. So, the age of Venus is 4.6 billion years old."

This video is probably produced by Jeffrey J. Wolynski who according to Rationalwiki is:

 "Jeffrey J. Wolynski (born 1984) is an obscure, scarcely known physics (http://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Physics) crank. Despite his exaggerated claims, he's virtually unknown to mainstream physics, and the only people who take him seriously are other wannabe physicists, conspiracy theorists (http://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Conspiracy_theorist), UFO (http://rationalwiki.org/wiki/UFO) nuts, Nibiru (http://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Nibiru) believers, Electric Universe (http://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Electric_Universe), and aetherometry (http://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Aetherometry) proponents" http://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Jeffrey_Wolynski

In other words there is no evidence.

I'm sure no one minds if this goes to "It cant be true"
