CL is not purely functional language.

CL is either multi-paradigm language or Lisp paradigm language. There is lisp style programming.

It has many functional primitives but typical CL programmer is not programming functionally. Other languages like Scheme or Clojure are more functionally 'oriented' Lisps.
