The message concerned the limits/sustainability of a population in a certain environment.
God only knows if it was at all on-topic, but the message is an island of substance in a sea of mostly drivel, as a topic totally goes to hell (and considering the topics theme, where else could it have gone?).

Kudos to John 10:10 for a nearly flawless parody of a creationist rant. Perhaps slightly over the top in feigning an abject failure to comprehend basic physics, chemistry, and biology. Nobody is quite that stupid. Still, a nigh-perfect POE.
9.8 on a scale of 10.

I would have seconded this nomination except for one glaring omission. He never hints at the 2nd Law. This is a de facto requirement for even your most basic modern POE. Without this, IMHO, John falls below POTM criteria. I give him an 85 for the effort but nothing more.
