Indeed, this is enough to stop reading. Implying that two pretty much opposite concepts are one and the same thing — especially when comparing them to OOP, which, basically, is one kind of imperative programming already means that author clearly doesn't know what he's talking about.
So I don't know and I don't care who this guy is, how much "experience" he allegedly has and there's no justification to the fact that every second comment in the thread tries to apply to authority as if it means something. All we need to know about the article is article itself, and this article is full of nonsense.
That being said, I actually agree with conclusions (though these are pretty obvious things anybody with handful of experience would see). But the whole reasoning behind it is just… hilarious.
