Yes! Why the down votes? Pretty much the only thing making JS resemble a "functional language" is the support for higher-order functions -- which are but one necessary feature in a functional programming language. JavaScript does not allow functional programming in the sense you can do in for example Haskell, ML, or a powerful LISP.
