I worked construction for many years before I became a tech-head and that forced me to view all programming languages as nothing but another tool on my belt. Some are heavy, some are light, .. but ultimately you use the one you HAVE to get the job done. If you shun out all other languages except for one, .. well.. try pounding a nail with a screwdriver.

The news site I work for, InfoQ, is actively trying to bridge that divide, but even it has problems. (I met the founder when he apologized after some of the readers flaming me for essentially saying why Ruby didn't interest me.)
