I blame the popularity of C/C++ and *nix.
Perhaps the best things to come out of the FP domain is (a) a more widespread disdain for C's fast/loose typing, (b) the realization that global state and side-effects can/should be avoided when possible, and (c) the realization that C language-family syntax is not indicative of "a real programming language".
