Go, via goroutines, promotes CSP as an approach to application
parallelism and is therefore a Good Thing™. Don't underestimate the
power of single threaded processes communicating using channels and no
shared memory. It is true that any language has zealots, look at
Fortran, Java, Python, D, but a language should not be judged solely by
its zealotry level. Well except for JavaScript (aka ECMAScript) of
course.
