I've joined the Facebook group protesting against this.
As I understand it, the information which is being conveyed at the centre states that some Young Earth Creationists believe that the Causeway was formed in this fashion. That statement is factually correct, many YECs do believe that. The centre is not saying that such a view is correct or is scientifically sound.
Like much of what the NSS bleats on about, it's a big hoo-haa over nothing.

So why not give equal credence to those believing that Finn the Giant created the causeway? Or to any other batshit loony sect for that matter

It's a sign. Loaves and fishes are off, chicken chow mein is the new holy of holy's.
If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical; but it must be a struggle.

There are two main groups making claims about the Causeway's formation - the scientists and YECs. The YEC are much, much smaller in number but it is still an opinion which holds some sway in NI.
I've never heard of anyone mention Finn the Giant before.

Scientists aren't 'making claims' about anything, they're stating facts based on empirical evidence.
Christianity: because you're so awful you made God kill himself.

But if they don't believe in God, due to evidence, they must have a agenda!
