It looks an awful lot like a troll to me. "Gee - let's see if we can get
folks arguing about which is the stupidest programming language by posting
to several language groups..."

If not, I'd suggest the question should be rephrased to be less inciteful.
(Something more along the lines of "What are the advantages to learning
language X if my goal is Y..." might be less apt to start a language war.)
Otherwise, we're better off ignoring it.
