The answer to your question is the same that it always is. No, Java is not a pure OO language. The inclusion of primitive types breaks pure OO but was done as a compromise for performance and some might argue elegance and usability as well.Anyway that clears your doubt enough.

> here are just a few of your friends with doubts> So what. Who cares. It won't make any difference. The next person won't search either. Some people do search and some people don't but either way you won't be changing anyones behaviour. Trust me.

Random quotes from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ur

"Ur is considered by many to be the city of Ur Kasdim mentioned in the Book of Genesis as the birthplace of the patriarch Abram (Abraham). This identification is, however, disputed."

"After Taylor's time the site was visited by numerous travelers, almost all of whom have found ancient Babylonian remains, inscribed stones and the like, lying upon the surface. The site was considered rich in remains, and relatively easy to explore."

"There is no modern village at Ur, so it has never received many tourist visitors"

Enjoy.
