Hasn't python replaced BASIC? /me ducks and hides for cover. Besides this, programming languages are "tools". This means, like everywhere in real life, "no tool fits all needs", each is better or less suitable for certain use-cases, as well as there are other factor to be considered, such as "popularity" (availability of documentation, examples, number of people/friends being able to assist), long term stability/availability/sustainability of a programming language, availability of libraries to one will want to reuse etc. That said, I'd choose "C" to getting started. It's a bit of a rough ride in the beginning, but it pays off in longer terms.
