Very interesting read.

Let's say I know next to nothing about Clojure, Lisp, functional programming, etc.

Could anyone suggest some resources for a beginner on this topic who is interesting in learning more about functional programming? Some tutorials perhaps?

programming clojure is good for java devs coming to clojure, functional programming, check this one out (http://learnyouahaskell.com/) for haskell Little Schemer (and subsequent books are good too) I personally started from the Little Schemer a few years back.
