Why do we need hero-worshipping ?

Well, it's simple. We tend to worship someone or something that is better than us, more powerful and influential than ourselves. We feel much safer and comfortable having a person we think could change our life, treating them as heroes. there are always someone who are better than us and we tend to look at them as an example or motivation. without heroes, someone will eventually be snobbish, selfish and arrogant. that's what i think..
