Thinking in Lisp

SQL, Lisp, and Haskell are the only programming languages that I've seen where one spends more time thinking than typing.
That's because it takes forever to think of the solution in Lisp and Haskell as opposed to a decent language. Faggot lispers will spend most of their time figuring out how best to abuse recursion because they think it makes them leet programmers or some shit.

I understand that people may have (usually have) hard time when reading s-exprs. And I agree that people must choose whatever is easier to understand, even C++¹, if you're coming from a imperative background. But I don't think that Lisp is that hard to understand.

People rejecting functional programming because of personal style or aesthetics just deserve every bug and shame that may arise when going on vacancy, or when Apollo 1 burnt, or when Therac-25 overdosed patients or when their billion-dollar jets crashed.

¹ Before learning C++ I tought it was the best language, because of its wide usage. Now I just think that people are dumb.

Implicit parallelization is great. But OpenMP is there for those you know who.
