I'm trying to toss up between learning Python or going completely functional with something like Haskell or Clojure.

the thing is I've spent most of my time reading up on the languages rather than doing it, I' think I'm suffering from language-analysis paralysis

My current language skillset is Java, Objective-C and a bit of Ruby although I wouldn't call myself an expert in any of them

I've been using Python for the last two years and I totally love it. While it does support functional paradigms, it's not actually a functional programming language.

Having said that, I would love to pick up Clojure next. Realistically though, I'm going to dive deeper into Python.
