Both designtheorist and justatruthseeker have shown a remarkable talent for incomprehension and falsehood; it is though they were competing to see who could be the biggest loon.
And to whom shall we award this coveted palm? On the one hand, designtheorist did seem to be making his own mistakes. Should he score marks for originality? Perhaps, but arguably not: is it not more the mark of the crank to do as justatruthseeker does, and parrot nonsense about subjects he doesn't understand?
Designtheorist must surely lose marks for staying more or less on topic, but then he has the disadvantage that as it was his own choice of topic he could hardly help doing so. Even so, one has to admire justatruthseeker for resolutely posting without the least reference to the subject of the thread.
Then there is the question of quantity. Now, designtheorist made twice as many posts; however, justatruthseeker was wrong about a much wider variety of things. When one looks at his posts, one is overcome by the same emotions that Heracles must have felt on first gazing at the stables of Augeus.
It is the distinctive mark of the crank that he should combine his ignorance with arrogance. Now, designtheorist occasionally lapsed into humility, as though realizing that people with Nobel Prizes in physics might conceivably know quite a bit about physics. By contrast, it seems no tremor of self-doubt has ever rippled the tranquil, dark, and stagnant surface of justatruthseeker's stupidity.
In the matter of presentation, both candidates disappointed, neither of them producing the gaudy typographic mess which is the mark of the true crank. And designtheorist, it grieves me to say, even wrote good English. This latter charge could not be laid at the feet of justatruthseeker, whose invention of phrases such as "0 point volume singularity" gave such a delightful air of stupidity to everything he wrote.
Finally, we come to the matter of paranoia. Now, designtheorist, to be sure, imputed ulterior motives (atheism, naturally) to all the physicists who disagree with him; but for true screaming twitching paranoia, we must turn to justatruthseeker. Not only was he quick to adduce a vast conspiracy as an explanation of why physicists disagree with him about physics, and astronomers about astronomy; but also his conspiracy theory is perhaps the most profoundly stupid I have ever seen, though I have walked among creationists, spoken with 9/11 Truthers, and met people who vote Republican.
We must therefore award the prize to justatruthseeker as being in almost every category the greater fool; the actual formal presentation will be postponed until the judges have ascertained whether he was using drugs to assist his performance.
