The Gish Gallop isn't a logical fallacy. It's a debating technique available to someone arguing the anti-science side, that leverages the fact that it's much quicker to tell a lie than it is to explain why it's false.

So in an equal time debate, a person arguing against science can make it seem as though they've made a whole stack of points, and while they aren't all 100% watertight, only minority of them have a scientific refutation. Just by talking a whole lot of bullshit, fast.
