The suffix Exception on exceptions in java

Are exceptions as control flow considered a serious antipattern? If so, Why?
Back in the late 90’s I worked quite a bit with a code base that used exceptions as flow control. It implemented a finite state machine to drive telephony applications. Lately I am reminded of those days because I’ve been doing MVC web apps.
How many are too many nested function calls?

Uncle Bob says in Clean Code book that Unchecked Exceptions should be used. Now JDK has some checked exceptions: IOException, IllegalAccessException etc. which cannot be avoided.

Assertions vs Exceptions – is my understanding of the differences between the two correct? [duplicate]
Design By Contract uses preconditions and postconditions of the public

Best Practice for Argument Checking
Say I have a web service with a method MyWebServiceMethod(string passedValue).
