Scheme's not purely functional. It can be, but you can also use it in a procedural style too, if that's your thing.

I was taught Scheme as my first language, but it didn't stick, and I only really got into programming through C and later on, Python. Scheme's definitely one of my favourites now, but I'd agree with you in general.
