Perhaps an analogous question would be: "Do you think I should become an Anglican or a Catholic in order to get a good job as a priest?" Being an excellent programmer is more of a vocation than you might think. If you don't think you have what it takes, but just want to make a living, then I suggest you learn Java. There are plenty of humdrum jobs out there churning out code for moving business objects around. After a while, you can start earnestly discussing "design patterns" with your colleagues.
