As the title says. I like Lisps. I've used Lisps and I long to be able to think in Lisp. I already sort of can. I know Scheme (the standard used by Guile R5RS (? not sure)) pretty well. I'm also aware of Common Lisp and Closure and the new Scheme standard, Racket.
I don't think much of Closure to be honest mostly because I hate the JVM. I hate the JVM because I'm poor and need to work with lean hardware most of the time.
I know Common Lisp has the most support which is important because Scheme is pretty damn barebones.
I however like the fully functional style, no bullshit approach of Scheme.
-----------------
Honestly my gut feeling is to just go with Common Lisp because having an unsupported platform is pretty much useless. However I'm not very well acquainted with Racket. Does it have much support yet?
No, JavaScript is not Lisp and no it isn't funny. Go do something productive instead of trolling.
