Actually, I don't think it belongs in any of these groups.   This "discussion"
seems to have no end and no reasonable resolution since the antagonists
arguments are based on personal opinions, preferences, and emotions.  I've not
seen anyone quote studies of the influence of "human factors" in programming
language design nor has any one proposed such a study as a useful outcome of
this recent flame war (although I must admit I'm wearing out the 'n' key on my
workstation).

comp.lang.religious-wars anyone?
