This is something interesting. What about a prize for unscientific claims: "the Unscientist award"? At the moment, only Patrick Lockerby (the author of the post linked above) proposes such prize according to the following rules: the potential candidate must either make use of an already debunked argument, a logical fallacy, or (verbatim) "self-aggrandising puerile prosey posturing", to reach and strongly support an unscientific conclusion going against scientific evidence.
It can be safely assumed that hordes of candidates are available out there.
