Or that certain systems or other bundles of features cannot have evolved
in piecemeal fashion, but rather must've appeared all together.  Or that
radiodating is inaccurate, and that there really are no fossils older
than, say, 6000 years.  Or that there is some other explanation that
works better than Darwinism.  I'm sure more possibilities could be
thought of easily.

There really are many ways in which Darwinistic evolution could be
disproven (which, of course, is what makes it a scientific theory.
Religious beliefs can't be disproven, scientific theories can)
