No, both your post and this reply are dogmatic. As I said, Ruby is the slowest modern dynamic programming language (and it's much slower than Perl).

You don't have to like dynamic languages - but that doesn't mean they are deeply flawed. The same could be said for statically typed languages with a different set of values.
