Lisp. Lisp is the only language

Name: Anonymous 2011-01-31 10:29

Why there are other programming languages besides Lisp? With Lisp's macro system you can create any language you need ever. Small, big, finely tuned for your task. Supporting other languages means opposing progress and delaying the inevitable future. There should be only one language and myriad languages at the same time. The one language is Lisp.

It's been 40 years since that language was invented and nobody came up with a standardized better syntax that would maintain the so-called code=data principle. Guess why?
Because S-expression already work perfectly?
