This (no pun intended) is just a a rehash of the Functional vs Object Oriented Programming debate. And certainly Javascript's ability to do FP is one of Javascript's strengths.

FP has its place but it's not a magic bullet and even if it is amazing that doesn't mean that other paradigms are never appropriate.
