I know a bit of Ruby, and my *very humble* opinion is that Python is
easier for beginners - *but* I'm probably (certainly) biased here, so
you'd better find some non-programmers  having learn Ruby in a similar
context and ask them about this (with the buzzword around Rails, you
find such people easily...)
