Yeah, but this is where I get confused. According to Dieter's posts, he's explicitly specifying the order of updates, which is how he reduces certain commitment control locking problems.
I can understand your position on queries. The system figures out what to do. But this whole update process makes me crazy...

Well as always, the code is what really does the work, so maybe he could post sample. But my guess is that he has sets of SQL INSERT and UPDATE statements in JDBC calls. Then these are bracketed by commits or rollbacks.
So yes, each individual SQL statement is non-procedural, but they are being issued in a particular sequence by the Java code.
BTW, maybe the language you were thinking of was Prologue, instead of lisp? This was non-procedural. You just specified a set of rules and the conditions that caused them to fire. But I believe the prologue/epilogue sections (if I'm remembering this right) did allow for procedural code for housekeeping and error handling.
