Also, do y'all call main() in the if block or do you just put the code you want to run in the if block?

I'd say the term "procedural" itself is an issue. Pretty much any language can be done that way if you choose. IIRC, the creator of Clojure wanted Java to work more that way, and he did it by having a single class full of functions. It's not a natural way to write Java, and that's why he invented Clojure.
