I like your sense of humor.

Appeal to Wikipedia Fallacy: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Functional_programming

LISP certainly shows up in the discussion. It's even called the first functional programming language!

There's not really an official definition of FP. There are some proposed ones that involve types and some that don't involve them. Mainly though, this is a thread about the linked article, which is about the tribulations that the author had learning Haskell. Most of those tribulations were with the type system and I think that matches most people's experience. You can't transplant it to Lisp.
