I've heard this dismissal made by the likes of Sam Harris and Michael Shermer against Deepak Chopra, which is fair enough.

But Roger Penrose is not Deepak Chopra, and he's earned the right to be treated with far more respect than this.

Perhaps the article doesn't do his work justice, but that doesn't make it reasonable to draw these kinds of derisive and vulgar comparisons.
