Damn man. Have you ever even used the languages you're trashing? Prolog and Lisp are two of the greatest languages even designed. They're extremely successful (far more than Perl). Just because they're not the best languages for writing your little cgi formmail scripts doesn't mean they're bad languages.
C++ is a total mess, and I don't know what you think a "hacker" is, but it certainly isn't any of the people who designed Java. Look at Joy, he thinks we should stop all technical innovation because we're going to end up killing ourselves. Is that a hacker mentality? I think not.
I'll gladly elaborate on my position once you have the slightest clue what you're talking about. Until then, adios.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
