La lingua sacra ed eterna

I can feel the godforce emanating from it.

You will soon have your God and you will construct it with your own hands.

My point still stands: Scheme is only a poorer and less portable version of Common Lisp. Certainly its metaprogramming support is not any better. In fact, it's even worse because of only one namespace, because of forced hygiene etc. Thus, writing a correct codewalker in Scheme is no easier than in CL (which is very hard).

There was a similar sentiment expressed in Let Over Lambda, too. You see, even experienced Lispers admit the weaknesses of Lisp metaprogramming, and only you - an obvious newbie to Lisp - are trying to deny it. To no avail except amusing me, of course.
