do you actually think no one uses C anymore?
Or C++ for that matter? Since learning C is necessary to learn C++, since a C++ is an extension of C.
Also, is your idea of an exciting programming language one that removes as much creativity as possible in how you're structuring your code? In C# if you need a dynamically resizing array, you don't learn how to build one, you just use the one that exists, same thing with sorting algorithms, memory management, error handling. Googling the documentation is not my idea of fun...

You only mentioned it about Delphi. Seemed like an implicit implication, since you didn't mention it about the other ones.
You might as well learn to program before you try to figure out how to work with an API.
In WinForms and ASP.NET there are a lot of fairly difficult things to debug, especially when dealing with event handlers. On console, at least you'll be able to step through the code and figure out where it's dying. You can't do that when an event handler breaks.
What part is confusing you?
