1) You love the Ruby programming language.

2) It's battle-tested. Tried and true. Batteries included. Can have a web app with most functionality needed running in minutes.

3) There are more reasons, but there are other good options as well. No reason to use Rails if you're not interested in Ruby.

Ruby. It's a uniquely expressive language (IMHO).

this is the Python standard library motto
