Why Are So Many Developers Hating on Object-Orient...
I don't think anyone is arguing that, say, Standard ML isn't a functional language, and if anyone did, they would probably be laughed out of the room.

Well, even on this thread FP is being discussed as a set of Haskell features, starting with the idea that all FP languages use immutable data only.
Which would make Standard ML not a FP language. :)
