There is OO religion and much more practical theory of abstract types. It
is not clear what is meant where. Anyway there are more choices than just
between typed and untyped. E.g. procedural vs. object decomposition,
imperative vs. declarative, manifested vs. inferred (typing), scoped vs.
global. People arguing FL vs. OOPL usually mix everything making any
reasonable discussion impossible.
