I'm not a professor, I'm a software engineer.  I'm just trying to help.  
You've made statements that strike me as half-informed. You're trying to 
unify concepts that perhaps can't or shouldn't be unified.  You've 
posted now to three different mailing lists about your thoughts on the 
nature of programming languages and object-orientation, and have 
apparently had little success in interesting people in them.  A number 
of people have suggested that you study more about the topics you're 
interested in, and I agree with them.
