My post was just meant to indicate that no matter HOW you use CFCs, there's going to be an element of OO in them. Not only that, but it'll never heart anybody to learn something new.
I never meant to push anything on anyone... and, like I said, I still have a completely procedural site. I still write code (lots of it published on my blog even!!) that's procedural.
However, I still contend and will until someone gives me a reason to quit, that regardless of how you implement them, there are intrinsically OO aspects involved when you develop with CFCs, that that fact should be recognized when they're being discussed.
Anywho...

As much as I like OO and as much as I think it's a good thing, I've been
around the houses enough times to know that pushing one mode of thinking
doesn't tend to foster too much innovation.
CFCs are very capable of being much more flexible than just OO in their
implementation and as long as people continue to cajole those who ask
questions into thinking in an OO way, innovation is going to suffer.
I vote for a scaling back of the "OO is the only way" attitude that this
list seems to have adopted recently. It often doesn't provide the
answers that people have asked for and it probably kills alternative
possibly better suggestions.
It reminds me very much of the religious fervor that usually surrounds
fusebox. Again, I think fusebox is great, but I want to constantly
explore new and innovative ways of thinking. As long as there is this
overbearing insistence on OO thinking I don't think that is going to happen.
