Yes, that's my feelings as well. I don't think i like OOP at all, but
as example, i don't have a problem using it in perl, javascript. And
i know it's in python and ruby too. Even i hardly ever use them. I can
understand that oop is quite useful in some programing tasks, and or
that it is a alternative valid way of modeling software other than
functional programing.
i think, if i were to summarize my hatred of java by single sentence,
it would be more to it being a low level, or system lang. (in the same
way, i hate C, C++, even though i don't even have a working knowledge
of these) Sun Micro's tremendouly marketing shit piled onto Java just
made my hatred of java far far worse.
