Python discourages loops in general and loops are core to MOST languages.
Python does many things very differently, like being contained in functions/classes is dependent on word SPACING, not closers or "End Loop".
If you search for even simple code in Python online you will see that the hard-core Python programmers use some funky way to program them and not at all traditional methods
Once again, I think it is cool and most likely will eventually adopt it as my primary language but since it so different from the other languages I would advise against it.

Again, nkabir: I don't dispute that it is better. And if the OP was asking "what is the ONLY language I should learn?" I would agree with you. But if he intends on learning other languages C++ is similar to most other languages.
