Perl is a language of syntactical variegations. Python on the other hand, does not even allow changes in code's indentation, but its efficiency and power in expression, with respect to semantics (i.e. algorithms), showcases Perl's poverty in specification.
Clarify :-D.
Well, I think it's pretty clearly troll-bait. Semantics != algorithms and Perl (just like Python) has no such poverty WRT specification.
Sounds like someone who learned Python and forgot that it wasn't a religion. Too bad, but a disease unique to no particular language. Perl, Python, Ruby, C, APL, LISP... they've all had their unpleasant zealots.
