I think you have have "objections" to evolution in terms of small details, like exactly which species you would start classifying as "early humanoids" or exactly how the evolution of humans came about for example.
It becomes silly when you try to dispute that the Earth is only a few thousand years old. There is now flat-out undeniable geological, paleontological and even historical human evidence (early tools/buildings) that the Earth is far older. Genetic evidence in humans alone proves modern humans have existed for at least 100 000 years, and didn't leave Africa until around 70 000 years ago.

"Ironically like the nativist far-Right, which despises multiculturalism, but benefits from its ideas of difference to scapegoat the other and to promote its own white identity politics; these postmodernists, leftists, feminists and liberals also use multiculturalism, to side with the oppressor, by demanding respect and tolerance for oppression characterised as 'difference', no matter how intolerable." - Maryam Namazie
