Reading articles like this make me want to avoid OOP.

It seems that like the concept is so over-complicated that it requires developers to invent an entire religion to be able to effectively apply it to real world use cases...( my procedural philosophy is so simple, I could explain it to a 10 year old).

There are many ways to build software, but only few ways to build it reliably. One major aspect of reliable software is composability, so that may ensure correct large systems are out of correct smaller systems. Correctness in the small, trivial bits and their glue is what makes correctness at large. You say you just have to think about what's best for your project. Why not think about and understand the problem in general and build tools to tackle the specific complexities you have.

Feel free to not use Haskell. Just keep in mind that you too live in a bubble with a certain mixture of doctrine and trade-offs.
