Do you have some more reading about this? The wikipedia article doesn't really touch on it.
The assumption is that the only way lead can exist is via a series of radioactive decay. It is a way. It is generally created in stars by a much more direct process, not through radioactive decay.
So the meme is incomplete, but the general point still stands from what I can tell, right? Stars take orders of magnitude longer than 4k years to create lead as well, and there is no way of lead being created that could happen in 4k years, unless you start getting into "God made the universe look old" territory?
Not really, the original point was to prove the earth isn't 4000 years old. Even if this were the only way lead could be created I'm assuming some portion of the decay could take place in space and then be part of the earth's formation.
