Is education part of the problem in trying to debate science and religion?

Just saw this posted by a answerer.

There is a significant amount of scientific evidence for worldwide flood:

The answerer obviously does not understand the concept of "scientific evidence". You can cherry pick tidbits of information here and there to support an opinion and get away with it--but if you move into the realm of making the scientific hypothesis that there was a world wide flood---every bit of evidence out there must support your claim--if you have 100 points that support your claim--and one which falsifies it--you claim has been falsified and is not valid. Clearly--the evidence out there against a globe flood overwhelingly falisfies the Noah's flood hypothesis-and relegates it to an allegorical story (most likely plagarized from the sumerian epic of gilgamesh which is 1000 years older than the Noah story). The point is--folks who put up that web site are trying to con people with "scientific data" when the idea is falisfiable--thus are the folks who put up such web sites either woefully ignorant of the scientific method or willfully misdirecting people? Has to be one or the other. An the lack of education in the sciences makes their readers easy prey?
