FWIW, I've been in the Clojure community for a few years and see almost zero FUD about Common Lisp. The atmosphere in the Clojure community is much more about pragmatism than zealotry.
Mostly, I see a healthy respect for other Lisps and a recognition that learning from traditions is a good way to build good things for the future.
