If you think the article is rubbish take a look at their forums.
Being a mathematician I get a real laugh at their attacks on mathematics and mathematicians.
Here are some examples.
(1) Comments on "How the Universe Works" documentary narrated by Stephen Hawking.
"There it is folks... there is the experiment of the worshipped relativist... all that is required is your miiiiiiiind.
This is not physics
This is not science
This is stoopid nonsensical retarded misleading mathematical thought-game filth of which can never be consistently reproduced, therefore It is not an experiment."
"The Discovery Channel has been airing a series, How The Universe Works, explaining the secrets of the Universe (to the feeble minded masses) and I cannot help but to be impressed by the sheer magnitude of the hubris of these mathematical theorists! such as, but not limited to, Stephen Hawkings."
(2) Comments on the Standard Model of Particle Physics.
"The only thing spinning in this context of "spin" would seem to be the mystical mathematician's web of deceit and delusion. Don't know much of his rope theory but I'd have to go with Gaede on this one with respect to the mathematician's conjuring of ... spin."
(3)Comments on New Math
(This "new math" is a website that takes a swipe at mathematics. Needless to say it has a lot of fans)
"Non-Euclidean geometry is a sick joke and contains a theorem which demonstrates itself to be a joke.
It's called Lobachevsky Theorem 20 which proves mathematically that Non-Euclidean geometry is false.
"Theorem 20: If in any triangle the sum of the three angles is equal to two right angles, so is this the case for every other triangle." -- Nikolai I. Lobachevsky, mathematician, 1840"
