Yes learn it, you should also learn at least one language per paradigm, it will give you a wider perspective on programming and a flexible mind. IMHO one should learn at least: Haskell(or something ML based like OCaML or F#), C++(regardless of what anyone says it will be an useful insight), Java or C#(also check D if you want), something Lisp based(Scheme is small and simple), perhaps some Prolog, Erland and Ada. Oh and see something of Forth if you like the looks of it and some assembly.
