No. I didn't say anyone was a "script kiddie." I merely stated that the manner in which Perl and Python function is different than the manner in which C and C++ function and that's enough of a difference that they belong in two categories of languages: 'scripting languages' (which are not compiled to assembly and typically require an interpreter) and 'compiled languages' (which can be compiled to assembly and typically do not require an interpreter.) Nor did I say Perl and Python aren't suitable for general purpose tasks. If you think 'using a scripting language' is the same as 'being a script kiddie,' then you're just wrong. [I don't know enough of how Java or Ruby function to say which category they belong in.]
