There are at least two things wrong with that. First, the more technical (and more trivial) reason why that is wrong. My statement was about what people should do, not what they actually do. Second, since there is no good reason to believe in Christianity, if everyone reasoned as they ought, no one would be a Christian at all. It is just a silly, primitive superstition, nothing more.
But let us not digress this thread into something it isn't meant to be. You are right that the word "hero" is overused, and in being overused, has been degraded and made practically meaningless. Your analysis of that is exactly correct. Just accept credit for your correct idea gracefully, and argue about other topics in other threads.
