I'll admit that philosophical blindness is somewhat amusing.

Fact 7 "When people thought the Earth was flat, they were wrong. When people thought the Earth was spherical, they were wrong. But if you think that thinking the Earth is spherical is just as wrong as thinking the Earth is flat, then your view is wronger than both of them put together." - Isaac Asimov

Hi Andrew. Do you think scientific evidence can be misleading? If yes, how misleading can scientific evidence be?

The breadth of how far misleading it can be is equivalent to your level of tolerance for what might count as scientific and/or evidence.
