There's a lot of religious imagery in the text with discussion about fractal cosmology, mysticism, Lisp's natural connection with the human mind, etc. It seems as though the author is trying to sell a religious experience to his readers. If that is the case, that's interesting in the sense that it is certainly unlike any other programming text I've read. I personally think evangelizing Lisp should be in the form of making it more familiar, human, and relatable to the average programmer, but I can't help but to respect the sheer uniqueness of the approach.
