Well, I do object. Learning Haskell went like a breeze (not to perfection, but well enough). Only Python was nearly as easy and quick to learn. Learning Lisp dialects is much harder (to a large part because of the parentheses, which makes them near impossible to parse). Perhaps you need perfect lisp editor (emacs) to help you parse those
