Oh geez, not this again. The point is not that science is stupid and dangerous. The point is that Twilight was being stubborn and closed-minded. She believed that she was absolutely right and Pinkie Pie was absolutely wrong. She started with a conclusion and then worked backwards to find a theory to explain it, which is the opposite of what a scientist should do. A scientist formulates a hypothesis and then tests it before drawing a conclusion.

Furthermore, there are things that scientists take on a "leap of faith." Physicists assume the Big Bang is what created the universe, though there is no absolute proof. You can choose to believe the physicists' theory, or you can choose to believe that god created the universe.
