Maybe! But proving an assertion like "Functional programmers are more arrogant than OOP programmers" or whatever is probably impossible. So here's my contribution to this debate: I write Haskell in my free time, and I'm not great at it, but if beginners ever need anything, e-mail me and I'll do everything I can to help. So for my part, I'm going to be non-arrogant and super-helpful and damn the rest.
