The kind of people that argue for monolithic kernels are the same people that argue C over C++ because it's "faster" and "more portable." Possibly true in slight corner cases but completely outweighed by other use cases.
--Bzzzt-- I'm sorry, try again.
There are cases when C is FAR superior, and cases when C++ leads to a much cleaner design.
If you believe that:
C++ is always better --> You probably aren't good at procedural algorithms
C is always better --> You don't really firmly grasp object based design.
If you don't think there's a best tool for the job, then you're probably just beating everything with a hammer.
