> and it's the canonical FP language

Don't tell that to the Haskell crowd. I feel like at least half the time this topic comes up on HN someone jumps out of the woodwork claiming lisp isn't fp because it doesn't do something or other that Haskell does.

I doubt it's Haskellers saying that. In my experience Haskellers don't even think about Lisp at all.
