He used to be a proper biologist
And a very good one, according t Wikipedia. Then he went off the rails a bit.
His old colleagues at Clare College gave him a bit of a sledging: ‘..Not that they were aggressively hostile; they just made fun of it. Whenever I said something like, "I've just got to go and make a telephone call," they said, "Ha, ha, why bother? Do it by morphic resonance!"[8]’.

I got the distinct impression he was
setting up theories as Immutable Laws then finding an exception, which is then used to allow the woo in.
Also Lewis Carroll quote about Laws was silly.
I guess it sells well to conspiracy/rebel/kidult audience who want to be different.
