You did argue for everything is the same. Basically by "same" I mean everything is "equally good" depending on context. The whole hammers are for hammering and screwdrivers are for screwing thing... I explicitly said your argument was that everything was a tool in a toolbox and you exactly replicated what I said.
My point is: something can be truly bad and something can be truly good EVEN when considering all possible contexts.
You can't prove definitively whether this is the case for FP or OOP or any programming style for that matter. You can't know whether someones "side" is a cargo cult or not when there's no theoretical way for measuring this.
The cultish following may even be correct in the same way I cargo cult my belief that the world is ROUND and not flat.
