One could say that Lisp is a functional language, but it's surely not
a logic programming language.

(There are two views on functional programming: one view requires
some features to be present (functions as first-class objects, ...),
and the other additionally forbids other features from being present
(assignments, ...).  Lisp is a functional language only according to
the former.)
