It really just sounds like you fell in love with Objective-C a

Actually, what I fell in love with a *lot* of years ago was
Smalltalk.
Nevertheless, it is quite and completely irrelevant in this list:
this is Cocoa, have you noticed? So, we are talking ObjC here (and
Java perhaps, though it is a very small niche).
I believe the original question of this thread actually was "can
strong typing be faster *in Objective C*"?
If not, I am sorry that I answered a different one, but in that
case the question was pretty offtopic.
You can write Cocoa in Haskell so I think it's well within the
scope of the list.
Yeah, there are quite a few languages that can interoperate with
Cocoa, due to the fact that it's rather easy to bridge to Objective-C..
PyObjC (Python): http://pyobjc.sf.net/
RubyCocoa (Ruby): http://rubycocoa.sf.net/
CamelBones (Perl): http://camelbones.sf.net/
HOC (Haskell): http://hoc.sourceforge.net/
... along with plenty of other bridges for just about every other
useful language, of various states of completeness (including Apple's
own Java, JavaScript, and AppleScript bridges).
PyObjC can even do a lot of things with the Objective-C runtime
better than Objective-C can :)
