Fair enough, but are you still opposed to others putting them on a pedestal?

By the way, I've looked up the definition of the phrase and aside from the definition I am familiar with ("better than others"), there was also one that implied perfection. Makes me wonder if everyone in this thread is on the same page.

There does seem to be some disgreement among definitions. The way I've always understand the terms (and which I see most often used) is that you consider something to be better than others, with the implication that it is beyond reproach or criticism. Basically, to idolize it.

With that definition in mind, I don't think people should put them on a pedestal.

That would be perfection then. So there is/was a disconnection in this thread.

Looks like it. Honestly, I didn't realize the term was used without that connotation.
